PBT assessment
Administrative data
PBT assessment: overall result
- PBT status:
- the substance is not PBT / vPvB
- Justification:
According to the Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, Chapter R.11: PBT Assessment, the criteria used to decide if a substance (or one of its constituents or transformation products in individual amounts ≥ 0.1 % (w/w)) must be regarded as a PBT or vPvB substance are set out in Annex XIII to the Regulation. Chloroform partitions to the atmosphere where it has a mean half-life of 70 days. About 90% of the substance in the environment is naturally produced. Chloroform does not accumulate in the environment. Chloroform is not considered to be persistent and it is not bioaccumulable, but only fulfils the criterion for toxic (T). Therefore, chloroform is not a PBT / vPvB.
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.
