Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The PNEC derivation was justified as follows:

PNEC freshwater sediment:

K_(susp-water) = 1.88

RHO_(susp) = 1150

Conversion factor (wwt -> dwt): 4.6

PNEC_freshwater sediment

= (K_(susp-water)/ RHO_(susp)) * PNEC_water * 1000

= (1.88/1150) * 5.24E-02 * 1000

= 0.085 mg/kg-ww -> 0.394 mg/kg-dw

PNEC marine water sediment:

K_(susp-water) = 1.88

RHO_(susp) = 1150

Conversion factor (wwt -> dwt): 4.6

PNEC_marine water sediment

= (K_(susp-water)/ RHO_(susp)) * PNEC_marine water * 1000

= (1.88/1150) * 5.24E-03 * 1000

= 0.0085 mg/kg-ww -> 0.0394 mg/kg-dw

PNEC soil:

K_(soil-water) = 1.38

RHO_(soil) = 1700

Conversion factor (wwt -> dwt): 1.13

PNEC_soil

= (K_(soil-water)/ RHO_(soil)) * PNEC_freshwater * 1000

= (1.38/1700) * 5.24E-02 * 1000

= 0.0425 mg/kg-ww -> 0.048 mg/kg-dw

Conclusion on classification

Acute (short-term) aquatic hazard:

Algae is the most sensitive aquatic species with an EC50 of 52.4 mg/L. In conclusion, the substance has not to be classified with regard to acute toxicity according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP), as amended for the twelfth time in Regulation (EU) 2019/521.

Chronic (long-term) toxicity:

Algae is the most sensitive aquatic species with an EC50 (72 -h) of 52.4 mg/L, an EC10 of 14.3 and a NOEC of 20.6 mg/L. In a ready biodegradability test, it was shown, that the substance was not ready biodegradable. Thus, the substance has to be classiffied as environmental chronic toxic cat. 3 (H412: Harmful to aquatic life with long lasting effects) according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP), as amended for the twelfth time in Regulation (EU) 2019/521.
