Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The bioaccumulation potential of the registered substance was determined based on an assessment of the toxicokinetics of the substance. The substance is not expected to bioaccumulate.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Bioaccumulation potential:
no bioaccumulation potential

Additional information

The bioaccumulation potential of the registered substance was determined via an assessment of the toxicokinetics of the substance. The substance is sparingly soluble in water and this limits its bioavailability. However, in water it will exist in ionised form and any toxicity and metabolic activity needs to be considered with regard to the metal ions aluminium, calcium and sodium and in regard to silicates. The absence of specific toxicokinetic data from animal testing on the anhydride means that it is not possible to make firm conclusions concerning the absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion. However, there is sufficient evidence from the fact that the ions will probably by absorbed from ingestion and excreted in the urine. With the exception of aluminium, the ions present are essential for healthy living and are required as part of a healthy diet. There is no suggestion that the ions will accumulate in the body and research on aluminium entering the brain is considered invalid in view of the expected levels of exposure. The substance is not expected to bioaccumulate based on the results of the assessment.
