Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

Aquatic toxicity data of barium m-toluate are not available. Read-across to the assessment entities soluble barium substances and m-toluic acid is applied for the assessment of barium m-toluate since the ions of barium m-toluate determine its fate and toxicity in the environment. Based on dissolved barium concentrations in solution, the ErC50and NOEC are >1.15 and >=1.15 mg Ba/L, respectively. For m-toluic acid, the 72-h EC50 for the growth inhibition of algae amounts to 18 mg/L and the corresponding NOEC to 10 mg/L.

 

Thus,barium m-toluate is expected to have a low potential for toxicity to algae.
