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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Experimental data are only available for one of the major components of the reaction mass of 2 -piperazin-1 -ylethanol, piperazine-1,4 -diethanol and piperazine (50, 25 and 25%).
The bioconcentration factor was determined for piperazine (CAS 110 -85 -0) similar to OECD 305 resulting in a BCF < 3.9 (NITE, 1979). Based on the log Kow for the major components of the reaction mass, no studies need to be conducted since their log Kow's are below 3:- 2 -piperazin-1 -ylethanol (CAS 103 -76 -4): log Kow -1.47 (measured; @ 25°C, pH 10.5-10.9; BASF AG, 1989; J.No. 105629)
- piperazine-1,4 -diethanol (CAS 122-96 -3): log Kow -1.62 (measured; @ 25 °C, pH 9.4–9.7; BASF AG, 1989; J.No. 105629)
- piperazine (CAS 110 -85 -0): -1.24 (measured; @ 25 °C; BASF AG, 1989; J.No. 105629)
The BCF values for the major components were estimated to be 3.16 using the BCFBAF Program v3.01 of EPI Suite v4.10 (BASF SE, 2013).
A bioaccumulation study with fish (Cyprinus carpio) according to OECD 305C did not show any risk of bioaccumulation for piperazine (NITE, 1979).
Based on these results, it can be concluded that accumulation in organisms is not to be expected.
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.
