Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The experimentally derived BCF values indicate that the substance has a relatively low bioaccumaltaion potential and does not meet the bioaccumalation criteria according to Annex XIII of the Reach regulation.
