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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Additional information
HYDROLYSIS
In accordance with column 2 of REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, Annex VIII, section 9.2.2.1, a study is not required for substances that are readily biodegradable. Lithium acetate is readily biodegradable (please refer to IUCLID section 5.2.1)
BIODEGRADATION
Under the conditions of the biodegradation study (Biodegradation in water:screening tests), the test item is considered to be ready biodegradable.
ADSORPTION/DESORPTION
In accordance with column 2 of REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, Annex VIII, section 9.3.1, the test on adsorption/desorption screening does not need to be conducted if the substance can be expected to have a low potential for adsorption based on the octanol/water partition coefficient. The theoretical calculated (EPIWIN) log Pow for acetic acid is 0.09, i.e. very low. Thus, based on the physico-chemical properties lithium can be expected to have a low potential for adsorption (which is confirmed e.g. by its low adsorption to sludge at sewage treatment plants).
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.
