Registration Dossier
Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 study is available to assess the toxicity of slags, silicomanganese-manufg to sediment organisms as the chemical safety assessment does not indicate a need for investigation of this end point.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
In accordance column 2 of REACH Annex X, the long-term toxicity to sediment organisms (required in section 9.5.1.) does not need to be conducted as no concern for this endpoint is indicated in the chemical safety assessment. This understanding is confirmed in the TDp test (IUCLID section 5.6). Here, one of the components (manganese) within the crystalline matrix is only seen at a concentration of 1 µg/L (after 28 days from 1 mg/L loading).Since the registered substance is a by-product of several metallic oxides in a crystalline matrix, any ionic metal leaching out of this matrix (considered very unlikely) is predicted to bind strongly to soil and sediments. On this basis the bioavailable concentration of any element from SiMn Slag to sediment dwelling organisms is predicted to be much less than the background concentration of manganese in European sediments (452 mg Mn/kg).
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.
