Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

Hazard assessment for the aquatic environment

Acute toxicity studies for the submission substance were available for three trophic levels, i.e. algae, daphnia and fish. The most sensitive organisms were aquatic invertebrates (Daphnia magna), and the derived effect concentration was used as basis of PNECaqua derivation (48h-EC50 = 1.68 mg/L). All studies were considered reliable and adequate for the environmental hazard assessment for aquatic organisms.

Hazard assessment for the terrestrial environment

Predicted no effect concentration were derived by the equilibrium partitioning method according to ECHA Guidance R.10.

Conclusion on classification

Acute hazard category

There are adequate short-term studies available covering three trophic levels, i.e. algae, daphnia and fish. According to Regulation (EC) No 2008/1272, the submission substance does not need to be classified for aquatic acute hazards, because available EC50 values are > 1 mg/L, i.e. the most sensitive EC50 value is 48h-EC50 (Daphnia magna, immobilisation) = 1.68 mg/L.

Chronic hazard category

There is one adequate long-term toxicity effect concentration available, i.e. for algae. The derived effect concentration is 72h-ErC10 (Desmodesmus subspicatus, growth rate) = 0.963 mg/L. The submission substance is not rapidly biodegradable and the log Kow < 4. Following the classification system of Regulation (EC) No 2008/1272, the submission substance has to be classified based on both, acute and chronic data for aquatic hazard category chronic 2.

In conclusion, the submission substance is classified for aquatic hazard category chronic 2, 'toxic to aquatic life with long-lasting effects' (H411).
