Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 sediment toxicity data were available for freshwater or marine sediments exposed to diisobutyl ketone (2,6-dimethylheptan-4-one, DIBK).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Direct or indirect exposure of the sediment compartment is unlikely because Diisobutyl ketone has a low potential for adsorbtion to sediment, having a Log Koc of 2.07. It is also readily biodegradable and has moderate water solubility (430 mg/l). The risk assessment shows that the estimated PEC/PNEC ratios are clearly <1, indicating no further information or testing is needed.
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.
