Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information
The hazard assessment is based on the data currently available. Pursuant to ECHA decision on a compliance check CCH-D-2114546495-41-01/F new studies with the registered substance will be conducted in the future. The finalised studies will be reported in an updated dossier until 19 October 2022 and the hazard assessment will be re-evaluated accordingly.
For further details, please refer to the category concept document attached to the category object (linked under IUCLID section 0.2) showing an overview of the strategy for all substances within the glycol esters category.

One experimental study investigating the short-term toxicity of decanoic acid, mixed diesters with octanoic acid and propylene glycol (CAS 68583-51-7) to aquatic invertebrates is available.
The key study with decanoic acid, mixed diesters with octanoic acid and propylene glycol was performed according to EU Method C.2 (GLP) with Daphnia magna in a static exposure regime. The test species were exposed to a Water Accommodated Fraction (WAF) of 1000 mg/L (nominal) for 48 h. A DOC analysis of the WAF resulted in a test substance concentration of 2.4 mg/L (meas. (geom. mean)). No effects were observed after 48 h. Thus, an EL50 of > 2.4 mg/L was determined and used for the chemical safety assessment.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
