PBT status:
the substance is not PBT / vPvB
Justification:

The substance is readily biodegradable and has a Log Pow of >7.2. The substance is not classified according to the criteria of the Classification, Labelling, and Packaging (CLP) regulation (1272/2008). The substance was found to be toxic to aquatic invertebrates and algae at concentrations two degrees of magnitude higher than its water solubility. Given that the substance is expected to be readily biodegradable it is considred that the substance does not pose a hazard to the aquatic environment.

Likely routes of exposure:

The substance will be used as a cosmetic ingredient and therefore will have direct exposure to humans and a wide dispersive release to the environment.
