PBT assessment
Administrative data
PBT assessment: overall result
- PBT status:
- the substance is not PBT / vPvB
- Justification:
The PBT assessment of lauryl nonanoate (CAS 17671-26-0) is based on the criteria set out in the “Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, Chapter R.11: PBT Assessment” (ECHA, 2017).
Persistence
Lauryl nonanoate (CAS 17671-26-0) is readily biodegradable according to the OECD criteria (85.5% in 28 d, OECD 301 B). Therefore, it is concluded that the lauryl nonanoate (CAS 17671-26-0) is not P/vP.
Bioaccumulation
The potential for bioaccumulation of lauryl nonanoate (CAS 17671-26-0) is expected to be low. This assumption is based on its low water solubility, ready biodegradability, high adsorption potential, and very high log Kow (> 6) which, taken together, is likely to result in a very low overall bioavailability of the substance. Therefore, the substance is considered not B or vB.
Toxicity
All available short-term and long-term toxicity studies indicated no effects on aquatic organisms up to the limit of water solubility of lauryl nonanoate (CAS 17671-26-0). Moreover, the substance is not classified according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008. Therefore, the criteria set out in Annex XIII of REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 are not met and the substance does not meet the T criterion.
In conclusionlauryl nonanoate(CAS 17671-26-0) is not PBT/vPvB.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
