Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

In a 3 h respiration inhibition study, activated sludge a predominantly municipal sewage treatment plant was exposed to Epoxy half acrylate (100% a.i.) at nominal concentrations of 0 (control), 10, 32, 100, 320 and 1000 mg/L in accordance with OECD Guideline 209 (2010). Copper (II) sulphate pentahydrate at concentrations of 58, 100 and 180 mg/L was used as reference substance. The respiration rates of the control, reference and test item replicates were measured after a contact time of three hours, and the inhibitory effects of the test and reference item were determined in comparison to the control respiration rates. The mean inhibition of respiration for the test item replicates ranged from 3% to 63%.

The 3 h EC50 was determined to be 594 mg/L, the 3 h EC10 was 31.7 mg/L, the 3 h NOEC was 10 mg/L.
