PBT assessment
Administrative data
PBT assessment: overall result
- PBT status:
- the substance is not PBT / vPvB
- Justification:
A substance that fulfils all three of the criteria for persistence, bioaccumulation and toxicity is a PBT substance according to REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006. The substance, Hydrocarbons, C7-C8, n-alkanes, is considered not to be PBT or vPvB on the following basis. The substance is readily biodegradable and, therefore, based on initial persistence screening is not expected to meet the Persistent (P) or very Persistent (vP) criteria. An evaluation of representative hydrocarbon structures indicates no structures meet the Bioaccumulative (B) or very Bioaccumulative (vB) criteria. None of the measured or calculated data for Hydrocarbons, C7-C8, n-alkanes is within the criteria for toxicity stipulated in the ECHA’s Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment - Part C: PBT Assessment (2008). Therefore this substance is not considered toxic (T). The substance also does not warrant classification for carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, and reproductive toxicity. See IUCLID Section 13 for a CONCAWE PBT assessment document for hydrocarbons.
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.
