Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusion on classification

Short-term aquatic toxicity data are available for three trophic levels (fish, invertebrates and alga). The lowest acute is a 96-h LC50 of 11.8 mg/L in fish (Pimephales promelas). Since the lowest acute toxicity value is > 1 mg/L, the substance does not need to be classified as acute aquatic toxic according to EU CLP (EC no. 1272/2008 and its amendments: Table 4.1.0; a).

Long-term aquatic toxicity data are available only from a study with algae Pseudokirchnerialla subcapitata in which a NOErC value of 5.95 mg/L (> 1 mg/L) was derived. Furthermore, the substance is classified as readily biodegradable. The log Kow is 2.1 (no experimentally determined BCF value is available). According to CLP Figure 4.1.1, the chronic classification has to be determined based on the chronic value for algae according to Table 4.1.0, (b) ii, as well as the acute value for Daphnia and fish according to Table 4.1.0, (b) iii, and the most stringent outcome should be leading:

- The substance has a chronic toxicity value of > 1 mg/L. Based on this information, the substance does not need to be classified according to Table 4.1.0, (b) ii.

- The lowest acute toxicity value falls between > 1 but ≤ 10 mg/L. The substance is rapidly degradable. Based on this information, the substance does not need to be classified according to Table 4.1.0, (b) iii.

Overall, it can be concluded that the substance does not need to be classified according to EU CLP (EC 1272/2008 and its amendments).
