Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

Key value determined using OECD Guideline 201. Under the conditions of the present study with Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, no reduction of growth rate or inhibition of yield was recorded at any of the concentrations of isobutylisopropyldimethoxysilane tested.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

EC50 for freshwater algae:
1.4 mg/L
EC10 or NOEC for freshwater algae:
1.4 mg/L

Additional information

Under the conditions of the present study with Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, no reduction of growth rate or inhibition of yield was recorded at any of the concentrations of isobutylisopropyldimethoxysilane tested.

The EC50 for growth rate reduction (72h-ERC50) and yield inhibition (72h-EYC50) was beyond the range tested, i.e. exceeded an average concentration of 1.4 mg/l.

Due to the very low solubility of isobutylisopropyldimethoxysilane in water, concentration levels that might be toxic for algae could not be reached.
