Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

According to Annex XI Section 3.1, the study does not need to be conducted because direct and indirect exposure of environment is unlikely based on the exposure scenario(s) developed in the Chemical Safety Report.


A result for the whole substance is not meaningful scientifically for the purpose of assessment of exposure or risk. It is therefore not appropriate to conduct or propose a test for this endpoint. According to current analytical data, potentially bioaccumulative components of FPBO include long-chain fatty acids, sesquiterpenes, PAHs, and sterols, present in FPBO at ~4 wt-% in total.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
