Description of key information

Due to the very low water solubility of the reaction mass of cerium dioxide and lanthanum oxide and lanthanum fluoride (2.23 µg/L), the study is waived as an analytical method sufficiently precise is not available.
Data on constituents:
CeO2: Not technically feasible for the same reasons as above,
La2O3: Due to the slightly higher solubility, the test could be performed giving a Koc = 5480283 and a Koc,des = 358213,
LaF3: No data.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Due to the very low water solubility of the reaction mass of cerium dioxide and lanthanum oxide and lanthanum fluoride (2.23 µg/L), the study is waived as an analytical method sufficiently precise is not available. The same reasoning is applied to cerium dioxide which presents an even lower solubility (< 0.123 µg/L). By contrast, due to the slightly higher solubility of lanthanum oxide, it was possible to perform the test. This ones, scored as Klimisch 2 (Völkel, 2008), was flagged as a supporting study and revealed a strong potential for adsorption to soil with Koc and Koc,des values of 5480283 and 358213, respectively. No data is available on lanthanum fluoride.
