Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

PBT assessment: overall result

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

Lithium salts of fatty acids predominantly C24 - C28 (saturated) is considered not to meet the criteria for PBT/vPvB based on data read across from lithium salts of fatty acids C14 - C22 category. The substances in the category are considered to be readily biodegradable and are thus not persistent or very persistent. The substances in the category are considered to have a low potential for bioaccumulation and are therefore not bioaccumulative or very bioaccumulative. The substances in the category showed no acute toxicity to aquatic organisms at loading rates up to 100 mg/L. The substances in the category are not carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic for reproduction and data indicate that chronic toxicity and repeat dose specific target organ toxicity is not expected. The members of this category are therefore not toxic. Data have been read across from the lithium salts of monocarboxylic acids C14-C22 and therefore lithium salts of fatty acids predominantly C24 - C28 (saturated) is considered not to meet the criteria for PBT/vPvB.

Likely routes of exposure:

Assessments of likely routes of exposure are not required for substances which are considered to be not PBT/vPvB.
