- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- not specified
- Conclusions:
- BCF values of 52-53 (1 mg/l) and ≤188 (0.1 mg/l) at 8 weeks were determined in a reliable study conducted according to an appropriate test protocol, with acceptable restrictions. The restrictions were that a dispersant was used, and the concentrations of the test substance were above the predicted water solubility. In addition, the analysis was performed by AA for Si and so it was not possible to determine whether parent or degradation product was measured.
Due to the fact that a dispersant was used, and the concentrations of the test substance were above the predicted water solubility, the results at the lowest concentration are likely to be most reliable. A mean BCF value of 244 can be calculated from the values at each sampling time for the lower concentration.

Description of key information
Bioaccumulation: BCF = 244 (mean of values at each sampling point for lower test concentration) (Method equivalent to or similar to OECD 305 C, with restrictions), for a structurally-related substance, which is a reaction mass of S2, S3 and S4.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- BCF (aquatic species):
- 244 dimensionless
Additional information
No reliable data are available for the submission substance, which is a reaction mass of S2 and S3.
A reliable study conducted according to an appropriate test protocol, and in compliance with GLP is available for CAS 211519 -85 -6, which is a reaction mass of S2, S3 and S4, and thus is a close structural analogue of the submission substance.
BCF values of 52-53 (1 mg/l) and ≤188 (0.1 mg/l) at 8 weeks were determined. There were some restrictions in the method used. Dispersant was used, and the concentrations of the test substance were above the predicted water solubility. Therefore, the result at the lower test concentration is likely to be most reliable. A BCF of 244 (mean of values at each sampling point for lower test concentration) was determined.
This is selected as the key study.
In contact with water these reaction masses hydrolyse to the corresponding silanol hydrolysis products and ethanol. The silanol hydrolysis products and ethanol have low log Kow values (<3), and thus have low potential for bioaccumulation.
S4 is 4,4,15,15-tetraethoxy-3,16-dioxa-8,9,10,11-tetrathia-4,15-disilaoctadecane
S3 is 4,4,14,14-tetraethoxy-3,15-dioxa-8,9,10-trithia-4,14-disilaheptadecane
S2 is 4,4,13,13-tetraethoxy-3,14-dioxa-8,9-dithia-4,13-disilahexadecane
