Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

Since no studies investigating the toxicity to aquatic microorganisms of alcohols, C16-18, ethoxylated, phosphates (CAS 106233-09-4) are available for this endpoint, in accordance to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 Annex XI, 1.5 read across to the structurally similar alcohol ethoxylates (1-Dodecanol, ethoxylated, 4 EO, CAS No. 9002-92-0 and alkyl (C12-14) polyethyleneglycolether 6 EO, CAS 68439-50-9) was conducted. This read-across is justified in detail in the overall summary (IUCLID chapter 6.1) and within the analogue justification in IUCLID Section 13.

In a respiration test with 1-Dodecanol, ethoxylated, 4 EO (CAS 9002-92-0) using domestic activated sludge according to EG-guideline 88/302/EG and GLP (Diefenbach, 1997), an EC50 (3h) of 140 mg/L was determined. This finding is supported by a test with alkyl (C12 -14) polyethyleneglycolether 6 EO, CAS 68439 -50 -9) and Pseudomonas putida according to DIN 38412, part 8 and GLP (Diefenbach, 1996) revealing an EC50 (16.9 hours) > 10 g/L.
