Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusion on classification
Environmental classification and labelling of a substance is generally based on data from short-term aquatic toxicity results, the ready biodegradability of the substance and an experimentally determined BCF (or if absent the measured octanol/water partition coefficient, Kow). Available adequate chronic toxicity data is also relevant for the assessment of long-term aquatic hazards (Regulation 286/2011/EC).
Short-term aquatic toxicity data is available for two trophic levels (daphnia and algae). The lowest short-term L(E)C50 was for daphnia with a 48-hour EC50 value of 32 mg/l. Chronic aquatic toxicity data is only available for algae; the 72-hour EC10 is 28.1 mg/L (based on growth rate). Limetol is not readily biodegradable and has a log Kow of 3.9.
Based on the above data, Limetol is classified as R52/53 according to Directive 67/548/EEC (DSD) and Aquatic Chronic 3 (H412) according to the CLP Regulation 1272/2008/EC & adaptation 286/2011/EC.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
