Additional information
The intermediate called PRODUCT L6143 is mainly composed of Amides, vegetable oil, N, N-bis(hydroxyethyl) at ca 86%.
This component cannot be well defined on chain lengths, number of insaturations and types of fatty acids. In fact, the term "vegetable oil" is used to describe this main component. No data this component are available, but data of similar substances with a defined number of carbons and insaturations are available:
Amides, C8-18 (even numbered) and C18-unsatd., N,N-bis(hydroxyethyl), CAS 68155-07-7
Amides, C12-18 (even-numbered) and C18 (unsatd.), N,N-bis(hydroxyethyl), CAS 90622-74-5
Amides, C16-18 and C18-unsatd., N,N-bis(hydroxyethyl), CAS 68603-38-3
Coconut fatty acid diethanolamide, CAS 68603-42-9
Amides, soya, N,N-bis(hydroxyethyl), CAS 68425-47-8
No data on diesters are available.
Diethanolamine, present in a range of 2 -5%, is not classified with regard to environmental hazardsaccording to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 Annex VI Table 3. However, a concern for the aquatic environmental compartment has been proposed in the diethanolamide registration dossier.
Data collected reveal a concern for the aquatic environment.
Consideration regarding the conclusion of the endpoints is reported in every related IUCLID section.
Conclusion on classification
In order to classify the product for the environmental toxicity, the available classification and the results of the reported studies of every known components or the more similar substance of the main component have been taken into account.
Amides, C8-18 (even numbered) and C18-unsatd., N,N-bis(hydroxyethyl): H411
Amides, C12-18 (even-numbered) and C18 (unsatd.), N,N-bis(hydroxyethyl): H411
Amides, C16-18 and C18-unsatd., N,N-bis(hydroxyethyl), CAS 68603-38-3: H411
Diethanolamine: H412
Approximately 86% of the PRODUCT L6143 is composed by Amides, vegetable oil, N, N-bis(hydroxyethyl), not well defined on chain lengths, number of insaturations and types of fatty acids. Diesters are also present in a variable concentration.
Approximately 2 -5 % of the organic part of the mixture is free diethanolamine.
The whole mixture that composes the intermediate has no data available on biodegradability, but similar substances of the main component (ca. 86%) are readily biodegradable and the same conclusion can done for PRODUCT L6143.
However, as a conclusion, the intermediate should be considered toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects.
According to the CLP Regulation 1272/2008/EC, 4.1 section, table 4.1.2, based on the information available, the intermediate PRODUCT L6143 is classified as an toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects, Aquatic Chronic 2, H411.
