Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
No data are available for the long-term toxicity of benzyl acetate to aquatic invertebrates.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
This data point has been waived for benzyl acetate on the basis that the environmental risk assessment has demonstrated safe use for the aquatic compartment in all exposure scenarios of the substance’s life cycle when based on existing aquatic acute and chronic (in fish and algae) data only. Furthermore, chronic data is available on the most sensitive species from the acute aquatic toxicity studies (O. latipes). As such, further data for the long-term effects of benzyl acetate on aquatic invertebrates are considered unnecessary. In addition,benzyl acetate is readily biodegradable and therefore non-persistent, and is not expected to bioaccumulate (given that its Log Kow is less than 3.0).
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.
