Registration Dossier
Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Additional information
Only a few data about the effects on terrestrial organisms are available. In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex IX, terrestrial toxicity studies do not need to be conducted as the equilibrium partitioning method in first instance could be applied to assess the hazard. In addition, no relevant exposure of the terrestrial compartment is expected as 1,2-Dichloroethane released to soil surfaces is expected to volatilize rapidly to the atmosphere. Due to this high mobility an accumulation and exposure of the substance in the soil compartement is unlikely. Consequently, no studies are proposed for 1,2-dichloroethane.
In addition to that, the available information indicate that the substance is non-toxic and of low environmental concern. The 48 hour contact LC50- value on the earthworm Eisenia fetida was determined to be of 60 μg/cm2 and the ED50 of Nicotiana tabacum pollen was determined to be 17.1 mg 1,2-dichloroethane/cm2.
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.
