Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

Conclusion on classification

Acute toxicity data for two trophic levels (algae and fish) fall in the range 10 mg/L < LC50 <= 100 mg/L, in addition the substance is not readily biodegradable, which meets the initial criteria for applying the category "Hazardous to the Aquatic Environment, Chronic Category 3". However, these criteria do not apply where chronic data are available demonstrating a NOEC >1 mg/L. Data for fish, daphnia and algae are available, with NOEC=19 mg/L, NOEC=16 mg/L and NOEC=2.1 mg/L, respectively, which clearly show that the classification into Chronic Category 3 does not apply. The substance does not meet the criteria for classification and labelling for Environmental Hazards as set out in Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, Annex I, Part 4.

It should be noted that according to the Globally Harmonised System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals, 3rdEdition (UN GHS, “Purple Book”), Part 4, Table 4.1.1, the substance meets the classification criteria for Acute Aquatic Hazard, Category 3.
