Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

In accordance with column 2 of REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, Annex IX and X, section 9.4.1 to 9.4.4, a terrestrial toxicity test does

not need to be conducted as direct and indirect exposure of the soil compartment is unlikely. Cesium ions have a very low potential to adsorb to soil (silicate minerals only). According to the available information, an input via sludge application on agricultural soil is considered to be negligible, as cesium ions do not adsorb to the sewage sludge to a significant extent. Pursuant to its physico-chemical properties, cesium ions are not expected to be distributed into soil. This similarly holds true for sulfate ions. Moreover, no toxicity for the physiological counter ion sulphate is expected. The estimated log Pow of cesium iodide is expected to be0 due to its salt character and good water solubility. It can be concluded, that the risk for the terrestrial compartment is low and no further information and/or testing is needed.
