Conclusion on classification

The environmental classification of the test substance is currently not harmonized according to the CLP Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 and the Dangerous Substance Directive 67/548/EC.

Based on available acute toxicity data, the lowest valid effect concentration for freshwater aquatic organisms is 26 mg/L (EC50 value for daphnia).

The substance is not readily biodegradable; its logKow is < 4. Based on available data the substance should not be classified for acute toxicity. From the acute data, daphnia appear to be the most sensitive species. No chronic daphnia data are available but calculations with ECOSAR v 1.11 following the aliphatic amines class, gives a chronic Daphnia value (ChV) of approx. 7.2 mg/L. As the measured NOEC value for algae is > 1 mg/L (12.5 mg/L for algae, no other measured long-term studies are available), and the predicted chronic value for Daphnia (the most sensitive species) is also above 1 mg/L, the substance should not be classified for chronic toxicity either, following section 4.1.2.6 of the CLP Regulation.
