Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

According to Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 "General Requirements for Generation of Information on Intrinsic Properties of substances", information on intrinsic properties of substances may be generated by means other than tests e.g. from information from structurally related substances (grouping or read-across), provided that conditions set out in Annex XI are met.

Annex XI, "General rules for adaptation of this standard testing regime set out in Annexes VII to X” states that “substances whose physicochemical, toxicological and ecotoxicological properties are likely to be similar or follow a regular pattern as a result of structural similarity may be considered as a group, or ‘category’ of substances. This avoids the need to test every substance for every endpoint”.

Since the group concept is applied to the members of the alkyl sulfates category, data will be generated from a representative category member to avoid unnecessary animal testing. Additionally, once the group concept is applied, substances will be classified and labeled on this basis.

 

Classification related key information:

Biodegradation in water: readily biodegradable (OECD 301E)

Bioaccumulation: no potential to bioaccumulate; log Pow 2.187 at 20 ºC (OECD 107)

Water solubility: >600 g/L at 20 ºC (EU method A.6)

 

Acute toxicity key values for C12-14 AS Mg (CAS 90583-23-6):

- For fish: 96h LC50 (Danio rerio, mortality) = 7.9 mg/L (nominal concentration, OECD 203)

- For invertebrates: 48h EC50 (Daphnia magna, mobility) = 4.7 mg/L (nominal concentration, EG/92/69/EWG, read-across from 85586-07-8)

- For algae: 72h EC50 (Scenedesmus subspicatus, growth rate) = >20 mg/L (nominal concentration, EU Method C.3, read-across from CAS 85586-07-8)

 

Chronic toxicity key values for C12-14 AS Mg (CAS 90583-23-6):

- For fish: 42d NOEC (Pimephales promelas; mortality and growth) ≥ 1.357 mg/L (measured concentration, read-across from CAS 151-21-3)

- For invertebrates: 7d NOEC (Ceriodaphnia dubia, reproduction) = 0.12 mg/L (measured concentration, EPA-600/489/001)

- For algae: 72h EC10 (Scenedesmus subspicatus, growth rate) = 5.4 mg/L (nominal concentration, EU Method C.3, read-across from CAS 85586-07-8)

 

Classification justification according to CLP:

Based on the data above, C12-14 ASMg (CAS 890583-23-6) is considered to be rapidly degradable and has a low potential for bioaccumulation. The acute aquatic toxicity L(E)C50 is above 1 mg/L for fish, invertebrates and algae. Valid chronic toxicity data are also available for all trophic levels. The lowest NOEC is 0.12 mg/L (thus in a range > 0.1 to < 1 mg/L) for aquatic invertebrates. C12-14 ASMg (CAS 90583-23-6) therefore needs to be classified and labeled as environmental hazard Chronic Cat. 3 according to Regulation (EC) No.1272/2008 and further ATPs.
