Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

PNEC values were calculated on the basis of the observation and effects seen in the three eco-toxicology studies where the water solubility values were analytically determined. Those water solubility values differ, in some cases, from that determined in the water solubility test of a 10 fold. Hence this approach is going to over-estimate the environmental distribution in the water compartment. Additional QSAR modeling with ECOSAR confirms that the substance will not result in chronic toxicity at the limits of water solubility.

As already discussed chemicals of concern regarding the secondary poisoning include lipophilic organic chemical and some metal compounds. Secondary poisoning is concerned with toxic effect in the higher members of the food chain (living in aquatic or terrestrial compartments) which result from ingestion of organisms from lower trophic levels that contain accumulated substances. The substance is not expected to be highly lipophilic and it is not considered bioaccumulative for purposes of CLP classification. Its calculated PNEC oral for secondary poisoning is considered high enough and not leading to any risk.

Conclusion on classification

The substance does not cause toxicity at the limits of water solubility and therefore is not classified as harmful to the environment for CLP regulation purposes.
