Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
AKD shows low solubility, hydrolyses rapidly under environmental conditions and is readily biodegradable, and in addition there is no direct or indirect environmental discharge of AKD to the environment. The lack of adverse effects in aquatic organisms at concentrations exceeding water solubility in combination with lack of effects when solvent or dispersion were used to increase the water soluble fraction leads to the conclusion that AKD is not hazardous to the aquatic environment. The readily biodegradability and rapid hydrolysis indicate limited potential for chronic exposure and effects, hence also no hazard for the longer term is identified. AKD is also of low toxicity to terrestrial organisms and mammals, and has low potential for bioaccumulation, and it is considered unlikely that AKD will cause toxic effects if accumulated via the food chain in higher organisms.
Conclusion on classification
The lack of adverse effects in aquatic organisms at concentrations exceeding water solubility in combination with lack of effects when solvent or dispersion were used to increase the water soluble fraction leads to the conclusion that no classification is required. The readily biodegradability and rapid hydrolysis indicate limited potential for chronic exposure and effects, hence also no further classification for the longer term is required.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
