Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusion on classification

Classification related key information for OPP (CAS 90-43-7):

Biodegradation in water: readily biodegradable (OECD 301B)

Bioaccumulation: no potential to bioaccumulate; BCF = 21.7

Water solubility: 0.56 g/L at 20 ºC (92/69/EEC, A.6)

 

Acute toxicity:

- For fish: 96 h LC50 (Danio rerio) = 4.5 mg/L (nominal, OECD 203)

- For invertebrates: 48 h EC50 (Daphnia magna) = 2.7 mg a.i./L (nominal, ASTM Standard E729-80)

- For algae: 72 h EC50 (Pseudokirchneriella subspicata, growth rate) = 3.57 mg a.i./L (measured, OECD 201)

 

Chronic toxicity:

- For fish: 21 d NOEC (Pimephales promelas; reproduction) = 0.036 mg a.i./L (measured)

- For invertebrates: 21 d NOEC (Daphnia magna, reproduction): = 0.009 mg a.i./L (measured, OECD 211)

- For algae: 72 h NOEC (Pseudokirchneriella subspicata, growth rate) = 0.468 mg/L (measured, OECD 201)

 

Classification justification according to CLP:

OPP (CAS-No. 90-43-7) is legally classified as Acute Cat. 1 according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, Annex VI, Part 3, List of harmonised classification and labelling of hazardous substances. This is not supported with the listed key study data. Based on the chronic data, available for fish, invertebrates and algae, the lowest NOEC is 0.009 mg/L (i.e. in the rage of > 0.001 to < 0.01 mg/L) for aquatic invertebrates. Therefore, OPP needs to be additionally classified and labeled as environmental hazard Chronic Cat. 1 according to the Regulation (EC) No.1272/2008 (CLP) and the Regulation (EU) No. 286/2011 (2nd ATP).
