Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING
In accordance with column 2 of REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, Annex IX and X, in case no long and short term tests regarding toxicity to terrestrial organims (required in section 9.4) are available, the equilibrium partitioning method may be applied to assess the hazard to soil organisms. According to its physico-chemical properties lithium nitrate is not expected to be distributed into soil and the ad-/desorption behaviour does not indicate that lithium will be present in the soil. The log Kd value for soil was found to be 2.57, i.e. adsorption potential to soil can be regarded as neglible (refer to IUCLID section 5.4). Thus, concentration and consequently effects in sediment are negligible. Additionally, nitrate naturally occurs in water and is a natural component of soil minerals. Therefore, no further testing is needed for the soil compartment.
