Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusion on classification

Official classification regarding environmental hazards

Aquatic compartment

In accordance with Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 Annex VI Table 3.1, the substance is not officially classified.

In accordance with Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 Annex VI Table 3.2, the substance is not officially classified.

 

Self-classification

Aquatic compartment

Following DSD/DPD, the substance is not to be classified as dangerous for the aquatic environment.

Rationale: The acute toxicity to aquatic organisms (LL/EL50) is between10 and100 mg/L (loading), but the substance is readily biodegradable.

 

Following GHS, the substance is not to be classified as hazardous to the aquatic environment.

Rationale: Chronic data are available only for algae, therefore classification is based on the available chronic and acute toxicity data.

- Chronic toxicity data: Chronic data are available only for algae (ErL10 = 28.5 mg/L; loading) indicating that the substance does not present a long-term hazard according to the categories outlined in Table 4.1.0(b) (ii) (Commission Regulation (EU) No 286/2011 amending Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008) for rapidly degradable substances.

- Acute toxicity data: The acute toxicity to aquatic organisms (LL/EL50) is between10 and 100 mg/L (loading), but the substance is rapidly biodegradable. The log Kow of some of the acyl halides is indeed ≥ 4, but based on weight of evidence using reliable QSAR data and including experimental data for the major hydrolysis product lauric acid (CAS 143 -07 -7), the BCF is expected to be clearly below 500.

 

Atmospheric compartment

The test substance is not in Annex I of Regulation (EC) 2037/2000 on substances that deplete the ozone layer.

The test substance does not belong to the green house gases listed in P Forster, PV Ramaswamy et al. Changes in Atmospheric Constituents and in Radiative Forcing. In: Climate Change 2007: The Physical Basis. Contribution of Working Group I to the Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on climate Change.
