Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
EPI Suite™ is a screening-level predictive tool based on SMILE notation.  The estimation methods in EPI Suite™ have been developed by government, academic, and private sector researchers over many years and represent some of the best techniques currently available. Moreover, the intended application domain of EPI Suite is organic chemicals which is in line with the test item.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
No testing is currently available to assess the bioaccumation in living organisms. However, the log Kow estimate (logKow = 3.8) indicates that the substance may bioaccumulate to a significant degree (Guidance on information requirements, ECHA, Chapter R7c, pp23). Nevertheless, when running modelisation (BCFBAF v3.01 - US EPA tool), it seems that the registered substance does not bioaccumate into organisms when the biotransformation rate in fish is considered. However, no further details are currently available on the registered substance metabolization.
