Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

PBT assessment: overall result

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

The results of different tests on biodegradability indicate that this substance is not readily biodegradable in an OECD 301B/F tests. However, this substance can be considered as readily biodegradable but failing the 10-day window. The mean cumulative biodegradation in one OECD 301F test was 62% and 70% using silica gel as carrier after 28 days indicating that this material will not persist in the environment. This is supported by the different other tests according to OECD301B/F.
As per a biodegradability test according to OECD 306 in marine water, it may be concluded that there is a potential for biodegradation in the marine environment, as well.

There are sufficient data on aquatic bioaccumulation to determine that this substance is “not B” and “not vB”.Log Kowis below 4.5.

When compared to the screening criteria, the results of the short-term toxicity tests indicate that that this substance is “presumably not T”, but this determination is not definitive; the determination based on screening criteria only requires that “each of the three properties persistency, bioaccumulation and toxicity need to be considered in conjunction” (Chapter R.11, “PBT Assessment”,Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, ECHA, May 2008, Section R.11.1.2.2, p. 13).
