Description of key information
Toxicity to soil macroorganisms except arthropods:
According to Column 2 of annex IX the study need not to be conducted because direct and indirect exposure of soil is highly unlikely considering the various uses of chemical as it is primarily used as an emulsifier to keep water and oils mixed. Chemical is used in the manufacture of food and healthcare products and is a non-ionic surfactant with emulsifying, dispersing, and wetting properties. Hence it is expected that toxicity to the soil macroorganisms except arthropods with the chemical is unlikely.
Toxicity to terrestrial arthropods:
According to Column 2 of annex IX the study need not to be conducted because direct and indirect exposure of soil is highly unlikely considering the various uses of chemical as it is primarily used as an emulsifier to keep water and oils mixed. Chemical is used in the manufacture of food and healthcare products and is a non-ionic surfactant with emulsifying, dispersing, and wetting properties. Hence it is expected that toxicity to the terrestrial arthropods with the chemical is unlikely.
Toxicity to terrestrial plants:
According to Column 2 of annex IX the study need not to be conducted because direct and indirect exposure of soil is highly unlikely considering the various uses of chemical as it is primarily used as an emulsifier to keep water and oils mixed. Chemical is used in the manufacture of food and healthcare products and is a non-ionic surfactant with emulsifying, dispersing, and wetting properties. Hence it is expected that toxicity to the terrestrial plants with the chemical is unlikely.
Toxicity to soil microorganisms:
According to Column 2 of annex IX the study need not to be conducted because direct and indirect exposure of soil is highly unlikely considering the various uses of chemical as it is primarily used as an emulsifier to keep water and oils mixed. Chemical is used in the manufacture of food and healthcare products and is a non-ionic surfactant with emulsifying, dispersing, and wetting properties. Hence it is expected that toxicity to the soil microorganisms with the chemical is unlikely.

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.
