Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 interpretation of the results of the available Daphnia reproduction study is complicated by the rapid disappearance of test material in the system. Based on the instability of the test material and this decline/disappearance of the test material during the test, it is considered that the test should not be regarded reliable without restriction. Due to this the results from this study have will not be used in the calculation of PNEC's.

An acute Daphnia magna study using a passive dosing technique (O-rings) has now been conducted and obtained stable concentrations throughout the test duration. This acute study is therefore considered more relevant for environmental assessment than the Daphnia magna reproduction study and has therefore been used as the basis for PNEC derivation.

Conclusion on classification

Following the EU CLP regulation, the substance does not need to be classified as hazardous to the aquatic environment, based on the available data on the substance.

Based on reported acute test results for fish (96 hr LC50 of 4.4 mg/L), algae (96 hr ErC50 of 7.6 mg/L) and key daphnia magna study (48 hr EC50 1.3 mg/L) for substance does not meet the criteria for classification as Acute Category 1 (requiring an acute result <= 1 mg/L).

A chronic classification is not required as although the acute toxicity studies provide results within the classification criteria, as the substance is readily biodegradable and is assessed to be non-bioaccumulative, the criteria for a chronic classification is not met.

The results of a Daphnia reproduction study, although not reliable without restriction, also does not support classification.
