Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Experimental data on toxicity of Tripropylenglykoldiacrylate (TPGDA, CAS 42978-66-5) to aquatic invertebrates are available.
As key study was performed conducted according to EU Method C2, using Daphnia magna as a test organism (BASF AG, 1988, rep. no.: 1/0671/2/88-0671/88). No vehicle was used in this study. The 48h EC50 was determined to be 89 mg/L, based on nominal test concentrations.
The test concentrations were not analytically verified. However, the test concentrations are assumed to be stable over the exposure period based on a sufficient water solubility, a low Henry's Law constant (see IUCLID Ch. 5.4.2) and a low adsorption potential (log Kow = 2.7, measured, see IUCLID Ch.4.7; Log Koc = 3, worst-case, estimated, see IUCLID Ch. 5.4.1).
It can be concluded that the substance is with high probability acutely harmful to aquatic invertebrates.
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.
