Description of key information

Oleylamine (CAS 112-90-3): Acutely very toxic to fish.
Copper phthalocyanine monosulfonic acid (CAS 28901-96-4): With high probability acutely not harmful to fish.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The Pigment additive Kr 1789 Stck. Ber. 100% (CAS 85650-96-0) is composed of Copper phthalocyanine monosulfonic acid (CAS 28901-96-4) and oleylamine (CAS 112-90-3). In case of the pigment-fraction the assessment is based on a read-across to data for Copper phthalocyanine (CAS 147-14-8) and Phthalocyanine, tris(phthalimidomethyl)-, copper deriv. (6CI) (CAS 59160 -79 -1), as experimental data for phthalocyanine monosulfonic acid (CAS 28901-96 -1) of the target substance itself are not available.

The toxicity of oleylamine (CAS 112 -90 -3) was assessed in an acute toxicity study according toEPA OPPTS 850.1085 (Fish Acute Toxicity Test mitigated by humic acid)with static conditions. Pimephales promelas was used as test species. The test concentration were analytically verified. The 96 -h LC50 was determined to be 0.11 mg/L (nominal; Mark et al., 1995).

It can be concluded that oleylamine is acutely very toxic to fish.

Regarding the toxicity of copper phthalocyanine monosulfonic acid (CAS 28901-96-4), there are no experimental data available. Therefore, the assessment is based on a read across to data for the structurally similar compounds Phthalocyanin IM (CAS 59160-79-1) and copper phthalocyanine (CAS 147-14-8). In an OECD 203 guideline study with Danio rerio as test species, a 96-h LC50 of >141 mg/L was determined for Phthalocyanin IM (CAS 59160-79-1), based on measured test concentrations. A screening test, according to OECD Guideline 203 with Danio rerio resulted in a 96-h LC50 of >100 mg/L (nominal, analytically not verified) for Copper phthalocyanine (CAS 147-14-8).

As all phthalocyanines resemble in structure as well as physical and chemical properties, comparable results are also expected for the target substance’s pigment-compound, indicating copper phthalocyanine monosulfonic acid (CAS 28901-96-4) to be with high probability acutely not harmful to fish.
