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.

Justification:

Criteria for assessing PBT properties are defined in REACH Regulation (1907/2006/EC, Annex XIII). Further details are laid down in ECHA Guidance on Information Requirements and Chemical Safety Assessment; Chapter R.11: PBT Assessment (November 2014). The PBT or vPvB assessment should be based on assessments for each parameter (i.e. P or vP, B or vB and T). Substances are only assigned as PBT or vPvB when they fulfil the criteria for all three properties persistency, bioaccumulation and toxicity (i.e. PBT substance) or both criteria (very persistent and very bioaccumulative) in case of vPvB.

2-Dimethylaminoethanol does not fulfil any of the relevant criteria for a PBT- or vPvB-substance, respectively. Firstly, the criteria for T are not fulfilled. Secondly, the substance possesses a negligible bioaccumulation potential and is not persistent. Based on this PBT assessment, it can be concluded that 2-dimethylaminoethanol is neither PBT nor vPvB.
