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.

Description of key information

Additional information

The classification of the aquatic toxicity is based on the CLP regulation. The immobilisation of Daphnia and algae growth rate inhibition eco-toxicity studies have been used for classifying the substance.

 

The acute data for determining the acute aquatic hazard shows that the 48-hr EC50 for Daphnia and the 72-hr ErC50 for algal growth inhibition is >1 mg/l. Hence, the substance does not need to be classified as an acute aquatic hazard category 1.

The substance is non-rapidly degradable.

An adequate chronic NOEC has been derived based on the algal growth rate, which is >1mg/l. This outcome does not lead to a classification.

However, the CLP regulation dictates a second trophic level assessment if there is adequate acute toxicity data available. The second trophic level is the Daphnia. Although a 48-h NOEC has been determined, this NOEC is not chronic and hence the acute toxicity (EC50) has to be used. The 48-h EC50 for Daphnia is between 10-100 mg/l. This EC50 is taken forward in determining the long-term classification, leading to a long-term aquatic hazard category 3.

 

Since the most stringent outcome determines the classification, the substance is a chronic aquatic hazard category 3.
