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

Classification related information


Biodegradability: readily biodegradable (82.9 % biodegradation in average after 28 days, OECD 301 B)


Log Pow: 8.96 at 22.6 °C


 



Aquatic acute toxicity


Invertebrates: EC50 (48 h) > 110 mg/L (nominal, Daphnia magna, OECD 202)


Algae: ErC50 (72 h) > 100 mg/L (nominal, Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, OECD 201)


 


Aquatic chronic toxicity


Algae: ErC10 (72 h) > 100 mg/L (nominal, Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, OECD 201)


 


 


Classification, Labelling, and Packaging Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008


The available experimental test data are reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation 1272/2008. The substance is considered to be readily biodegradable. None of the test species showed biological effects up to and including the highest test concentration of the source substances hexane-1,2-diol and octane-1,2-diole, respectively. The ErC50 and ErC10 (72 h, growth rate) for the algae (P. subcapitata) was determined to be > 100 mg/L (nominal). In analogy, the 48-hour EC50 for aquatic invertebrates (D. magna) was found to be > 110 mg/L. The log Pow was measured to be 0.896. Based on these results, the test item is neither classified for aquatic short-term (acute) toxicity, nor for aquatic long-term (chronic) toxicity according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP), as amended for the sixteenth time in Regulation (EU) 2021/643.
