Description of key information

Short-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates: EC0 (48h) = 27 mg/L, EC50 (48h) = 84.2 mg/L.


Toxicity to aquatic plants other than algae: EC50 (7d) > 200 mg/L for growth rate of both frond number and biomass.

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification:


 


According to the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008), a substance shall be classified as category acute 1 (H400) when:


96 hr LC50 (for fish) < 1 mg/L and/or


48 hr EC50 (for crustacea) < 1 mg/L and/or


72 or 96 hr ErC (for algae or other aquatic plants) < 1 mg/L.


 


Moreover, if adequate chronic toxicity data is not available, a substance shall be classified as category chronic 3 (H412) when:


96 hr LC50 (for fish): 10 - 100 mg/L and/or


48 hr EC50 (for crustacea): 10 - 100 mg/L and/or


72 or 96 hr ErC (for algae or other aquatic plants): 10 - 100 mg/L


and the substance is not rapidly degradable and/or the experimentally determined BCF ≥ 500 (or, if absent, the log Kow ≥ 4).


 


Based on available data, classification in category chronic 3 (H412) was applied.
