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

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

According to Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, Annex IX, Column 2, 9.1.6, long-term toxicity testing shall be proposed by the registrant if the chemical safety assessment according to Annex I indicates the need to investigate further the effects on aquatic organisms. The release of the substance to the environment after passing through conventional Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs) is expected to be low. The Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, Chapter R.7b (ECHA, 2017) states that once insoluble chemicals enter a standard STP, they will be extensively removed in the primary settling tank and fat trap and thus, only limited amounts will get in contact with activated sludge organisms. Nevertheless, once this contact takes place, these substances are expected to be removed from the water column to a significant degree by adsorption to sewage sludge (Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, Chapter R.7a, (ECHA, 2017). Thus, discharged concentrations of this substance into the aqueous/sediment compartment are likely to be low. Additionally in all available aquatic studies no effects were observed up to the limit of water solubility. Thus and for reasons of animal welfare, long-term testing on fish is not proposed.
