Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Tetrabutane, dest. is not acutely harmful for daphnids.
EC50 (48 h, static) > 77 µg/L (measured)/ which is the solubility limit of the test substance under the conditions of the test (Daphnia magna, 92/69/EEC part C2)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Fresh water invertebrates
Fresh water invertebrates
- Effect concentration:
- 0.077 mg/L
Additional information
Tetrabutan, dest. was tested in acute toxicity test with daphnids (Daphnia magna Straus) under static conditions according to the guideline EU Method C.2 (Acute Toxicity for Daphnia). The test was conducted as limit test. In order to attain the solubility limit of the test substance, which is poorly soluble in water, 1 g Tetrabutan, dest./L was stirred for 18 h and undissolved test substance was then removed by filtration. No loss of test substance over the test period was recorded by analytical determination with gas chromatography, the concentration value given is therefore the initially measured value. No effects on the exposed daphnids were recorded, thus the EC0≥ 77 µg/L and the EC50 > 77 µg/L which constitutes the solubility limit of tetrabutan, dest. under the conditions of the test.
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).
