Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The environment will in princliple not be exposed as EDTN is used as an transported isolated intermediate and will not be present in its endproduct.

A read-across document was prepared to justify the estimation of the aquatic toxicity of EDTN partly based on data for the analogue substance PDTN. The 96h-LC50 of EDTN for fish is above 100 mg/l and for aquatic invertebrates, algae and micro-organisms the EC50 is also expected to be above 100 mg/l. Chronic data are available for PDTN for algae and Daphnids for which the latter showed the lowest EC10 value (25.6 mg/L). The consequent EDTN value used for PNEC derivation has therefore been derived correcting for molecular mass.

Conclusion on classification

The toxicity data indicate that the acute EC50 or LC50 for micro-organisms, algae, daphnia and fish is above 100 mg/l and the read across chronic EC10 values for algae and daphnia are > 1 mg/L. Also the bioaccumulation potential is low. Therefore the substance EDTN does not need to be classified for its environmental hazards according to Directive 67/548 or Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (2nd ATP to CLP).
