Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

All the reported PNECs were calculated from the application of assessment factors as detailed from the Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment-Chapter R.10 Characterisation of dose (concentration)-response for environment. PNEC values were calculated on the basis of the observation and effects seen in the three eco-toxicology studies where the substance concentration values not analytically determined due to the lack of a suitable analytical method to be applied in such studies. The lowest L(E)C50 value is used in the calculation of PNECs; in this case therefore the EC/NOEC value of 0.25 mg/L from the algal study is taken as staring point.

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 enter the environment during its use and therefore no secondary poisoning is going to occur. The calculated PNEC oral for secondary poisoning is considered high enough and not leading to any risk.

Conclusion on classification

The substance is classified harmful to the environment as for CLP regulation
