Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

PNECs were derived for freshwater, saltwater, sediment, soil and micro-organisms using the experimental data or equilibrium partitioning calculations.

Conclusion on classification

Experimental results were identified for DCPD for the three trophic levels (algae, invertebrates, and fish) with variable reliability. QSAR estimates are also provided.

 

The acute key values gave an LC50 for freshwater fish of 15.7 mg/L, an EC50 for freshwater invertebrates of 0.823 mg/L and an EC50 for freshwater algae of 22 mg/L. The chronic key value gave a NOEC for freshwater fish of 0.98 mg/L, a NOEC for invertebrates of 0.574 mg/L and an algal growth inhibition NOEC of 1.7 mg/L.

 

Based on the acute key value for aquatic invertebrates of 0.823 mg/L, the substance is self-classified as Acute Aquatic Category 1 under REGULATION (EC) No 1272/2008 with the hazard phrase H400: ‘very toxic to aquatic life’ and this has been added as a self-classification to the dossier.
As the substance is not readily biodegradable, the lowest chronic key value indicates that DCPD meets the criteria for and is self-classified as Chronic Aquatic Category 2 under REGULATION (EC) No 1272/2008, with the hazard phrase H411: ‘toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects’.
