Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusion on classification

The Cobalt-constituent of the substance is inorganic and therefore, biodegradation is not applicable. However, the citrate-constituent is readily biodegradable. Available data on bioaccumulation indicate a moderate bioaccumulation potential.

The most sensitive reliable acute aquatic value with a standard test species is an EC50 of 1.16 mg/L (Daphnia, read-across).

The most sensitive reliable chronic toxicity value is 0.016 mg/L (Daphnia, read-across). Thus, the substance is classified Aquatic chronic 2 according to EU GHS, and classified R 51/53 according to DSD/DPD.
