Description of key information
Additional information
DEA acetate is a highly soluble organic salt (>1000 g/l) that is expected to have a low potential for bioaccumulation due to a low log Pow value (expected to be less than -1.31). The results from a biodegradability test (Desmares-Koopmans, 2010) on a structurally-related compound, TEA acetate, suggest that DEA acetate may also by inherently biodegradable.
DEA acetate’s aquatic toxicity is predicted to be low due to the results of short-term toxicity tests conducted on structurally-related read-across compounds (TEA acetate, RA1 and RA2). The LC50, EC50 and NOEC values for fish, daphnia, algae and cyanobacteria were all over 100 mg/L (Bouwman, 2010a, b; Grutzner, 1997a, b, c; Peither, 1999, 2000a), and over 1000 mg/L for microorganisms in activated sludge (Grutzner, 1997d; Peither, 2000b).
Due to its very high solubility, long term toxicity tests were not considered necessary. Additionally, strictly controlled conditions of safe use are applied to the substance, in accordance with the Guidance on Safe Use (provided in section 11 of the IUCLID file) prevent any release to the aquatic compartment.
DEA acetate does not meet the criteria to be classified as dangerous for the aquatic compartment, nor does it meet the criteria to be considered as persistent, bioaccumulative or toxic under the REACH Regulation.
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.
