Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

Conclusion on classification

In the absence of adequate aquatic chronic toxicity information from all three trophic levels, the classification was based on short-term aquatic toxicity values (72-h ErLR10 > 100 mg/L in algae, 48-h ELR10 > 100 mg/L in daphnids, and 96-h NOEC = 10,000 mg/L in fish). Based on the results of these three tests, no toxicity was observed in any of the three trophic levels; furthermore, there is no evidence that the acute toxicity tests do not provide a true measure of the intrinsic aquatic toxicity of the substance. Although the substance was not shown to be readily biodegradable, the substance exhibited inherent primary degradability (i.e., 21.8%). Therefore, while the substance is not expected to be very persistent in the environment, it does exhibit the potential to be persistent. The predicted bioconcentration factor (BCF = 227.7 L/kg w.w.), estimated by a validated QSAR model (EPI Suite BCFBAF v3.01), is above the criterion of concern for food chain exposures (BCF ≥ 100), and the. predicted octanol-water partition coefficient (log Kow) of 9.39 is above the criterion (log Kow≥ 4.0) for possible environmental classification. Therefore, food chain exposures and bioaccumulation of the substance are of potential concern. In summary, although there is no evidence that the acute toxicity tests do not provide a true measure of the intrinsic aquatic toxicity of the substance, the substance exhibits the potential to be persistent or bioaccumulative in the environment. Therefore, the substance was assigned a Category Chronic 4 classification.
