Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Classification & Labelling & PBT assessment

PBT assessment

Currently viewing:

Administrative data

PBT assessment: overall result

PBT status:
the substance is not PBT / vPvB
Justification:

Persistence assessment

Ready biodegradability may be used as a screening criterion of P and vP (REACH Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.11: PBT Assessment, Table R.11-2). Ready biodegradability of

NExBTL renewable diesel, which is a UVCB substance of similar composition to the substance (- see analogue approach justification document), was determined in a GLP compliant laboratory according to OECD Guideline 301B

(Ready biodegradability; CO2 Evolution test). As a result, the test material was found readily biodegradable. Therefore, it can be concluded that is also readily biodegradable.

Value used for CSA: not P and not vP

Bioaccumulation Assessment

BCFWIN v2.17 software developed by US-EPA (2000) was used for modelling of bioaccumulation of the substance. The BCFs of individual n-alkane and i-alkane congeners composing > 99.9 % of all congeners present in the substance were determined. A weighed average was used for B and vB assessment. BCF of the substance is 356.

Value used for CSA: not B and not vB

Toxicity Assessment

Chronic NOEC was used for assessing T criteriaof the substance. Chronic toxicity of NExBTL renewable diesel, which is a UVCB substance of similar composition to the substance, was determined in a GLP compliant laboratory according to OECD Guideline 211 (Daphnia magna Reproduction test). The long-term NOEC was 1 mg/l (WAF).

With regard to the specific health properties relevant to this PBT/vPvB assessment it is concluded that the substance is not carcinogenic, mutagenic or reprotoxic nor does it possess hazards of equivalent concern.

Value used for CSA: not T
