Additional information
In general, the hazard assessment is based on the concentration of the Ti ion in environmental media. As the T/D test could only demonstrate very low release release of Ti from TiN (23.8 µg/L), but the release of Ti ions in environmentally relevant test media is even below 2 µg/L, and toxic effects were not observed in any of the available aquatic acute toxicity studies, hazards for the environment were not identified. Thus, derivation of PNECs is not necessary.
Conclusion on classification
In available studies investigating the acute aquatic toxicity of titanium nitride to fish, invertebrates and algae, no adverse effects attributable to dissolved titanium could be identified, irrespective of test species and trophic level. The solubility of the test substance in relevant toxicity test media was below 2 µg/L (limit of quantification) at test initiation and at test termination in all controls and test exposures.
Therefore, no hazard to aquatic organisms is identified. Titanium nitride hence does not require classification for environmental hazards.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
