Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

There are no sediment toxicity data for the product to register Marlon ARL, but there are 3 published studies on one of the substances (LAS) that is the major constiuent of the reaction product (i.e., the read across substance LAS).  

Key value for chemical safety assessment

EC50 or LC50 for freshwater sediment:
105 mg/kg sediment dw
EC10, LC10 or NOEC for freshwater sediment:
81 mg/kg sediment dw

Additional information

The studies are with CAS No. 68411-30-3 Sodium 4-undecylbenzenesulfonate. A 1986 OECD 218 guideline study reports the 72-hr LC50 of midge to be ~3 mg/L and the 24-day NOEC to be 2.4 mg/L. A 2006 sediment exposure of Lumbriculus and Caenorhablitis reports a 28-day EC50 of 105 mg/kg dry weight sediment (NOEC = 81), and a 3-day EC10 of 275 mg/kg dry weight sediment (NOEC = 200), respectively. The reaction product and its constituent substances are readily biodegradable and have a very low logPow. A significant distribution into the sediment compartment and a significant exposure of sediment organisms is not expected. The data for the sodium 4-decylbenzenesulfonate has been used for assessing the hazard to sediment organisms.
