Conclusion on classification

Ecotoxicity Labelling 

There is currently no experimental ecotoxicity data available for Distillates (Petroleum), steam-cracked, dimerised (C5-12, C10-rich). The toxicity of Distillates (Petroleum), steam-cracked, dimerised (C5-12, C10-rich) was predicted by a QSAR, the PETROTOX v4.0 computer model. PETROTOX is a well-documented and peer reviewed model that is widely used across the chemicals industry. The predicted E(L)L50 and EL10 values for three aquatic trophic levels (fish, invertebrates and algae) ranged from 0.770 to 2.91 mg/L (E(L)L50) and 0.147 to 0.350 mg/L (EL10).

Experimental data for fish, invertebrates and algae is available for 5 similar streams (EC 266-013-0, EC 270-790-1, EC 270-737-2, EC 271-138-9 and EC 305-586-4). These studies showed similar results across the three trophic levels. The fish studies provided a 96-hour LL50 range of 0.73 to 6.3 mg/L WAF. The invertebrate studies provided 48-hour EL50 range of 0.91 to 3.3 mg/L WAF and a 6-7-d EL10 (reproduction) range of 0.49 to 0.85 mg7L. The algae studies provided a 72-hour ErL50 range of 1.3 to 6.3 mg/L WAF and a 72 -hour ErL10 range of 1.3 to 1.7 mg/L WAF.

Conclusion

Based on estimated toxicity for Distillates (Petroleum), steam-cracked, dimerised (C5-12, C10-rich) (most conservative acute and chronic results: 72-hour EL50 for algae of 0.770 mg/L; 72-hour EL10 for algae of 0.147 mg/L), supported by the available experimental data on similar streams, Distillates (Petroleum), steam-cracked, dimerised (C5-12, C10-rich) should have the classification Acute 1 Chronic 2 under the CLP regulations.
