PBT assessment
Administrative data
PBT assessment: overall result
- Name:
- Trifluoroiodomethane
- Type of composition:
- legal entity composition of the substance
- State / form:
- gas
- Reference substance:
- Trifluoroiodomethane
- PBT status:
- the substance is not PBT / vPvB
- Justification:
Persistency
The substance was determined to be not readily biodegradable in an OECD TG 301D test. But, in the air atmosphere, which is the main fate compartment of the substance, degradation via reaction with OH radicals is assumed to rapid. The half-life time was experimentally deteremined to be 2.67 days (Nyden et al., 1995), with supporting information presenting a half-life time of 1.15 days (NAS Review). Therefore, the substance can be regarded as not persistent in the environment (not P).
Bioaccumulation
As the log Kow is below 4.5, the substance satisfies the screening criterion to be considered as not bioaccumulative (Not B).
Toxicity
The substance is not considered toxic in the environment based on long-term aquatic toxicity data. Furthermore, the substance does not meet the criteria for classification as carcinogenic (category 1A or 1B), germ cell mutagenic (category 1A or 1B), or toxic for reproduction (category 1A, 1B or 2) according to Regulation EC No 1272/2008; and no further evidence of chronic toxicity is observed as the substance does not meet the criteria for classification: specific target organ toxicity after repeated exposure (STOT RE category 1 or 2) according to Regulation EC No 1272/2008 (not T).
Reference
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
