Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The toxicity potential of the substance to the aquatic organisms was evaluated by considering available data on Similar Substance 01, due to the absence of data for the target substance. Justification for Read Across is given in Section 13 of IUCLID.

The aquatic toxicity studies include the short-term toxicity to fish and to aquatic invertebrates, the toxicity to aquatic algae and the toxicity to microorganisms. It is worth saying that effect levels were above the water solubility of the substance. The following results are obtained:

Fish

LC50 (96 h)> 71 mg/l (measured)

Daphnia

EC50 (24h) = 11 mg/l (nominal)

Algae

EC50 (72 h) = 33.9 mg/l (nominal)

Microorganisms

IC50 (3 h) > 100 mg/l (nominal)

Conclusion on classification

Effect levels for all aquatic organisms were above the water solubility of the substance and therefore the substance is not considered to exhibit an aquatic toxicity potential. The use of solvents/dispersants rendered the substance more water soluble and thus more bioavailable to test organisms; the effect levels obtained are the worst case assumption since they are quite above the water solubility of the substance (<1 mg/l).

Classification for Acute Aquatic Toxicity or for Chronic Toxicity Category 1, 2 or 3 is not proposed. According to the CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, the substance could be classified in Chronic Category 4 - safety net, but due to the fact that the substance is readily biodegradable and the effect levels are above the water solubility, no classification for aquatic toxicity is adopted.
