Description of key information
Read-across to the assessment entities soluble zinc substances and neodecanoic acid is applied for the assessment of zinc neodecanoate, basic since the ions of zinc neodecanoate, basic determine its fate and toxicity in the environment. Reliable data available for soluble zinc substances and neodecanoate indicate that the moiety of ecotoxicological concern are zinc cations. Regarding the toxicity of zinc to freshwater algae, the lowest IC50 value amounts to 0.136 mg Zn/L and the lowest NOEC/EC10 values to 0.019 mg Zn/L and 0.0078 mg Zn/L for freshwater algae and marine algae, respectively. Data for neodecanoic acid indicate a low toxic potential to freshwater algae with a 72-h EL50 of >100 mg/L neodecanoic acid.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
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.
