Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

PNECs have been derived for completeness. As the substance is not classified, in accordance with Article 14 of REACH, exposure assessment and risk characterisation does not need to be performed.

Conclusion on classification

The ecotoxicity studies conducted show that Diutan is of low concern to the environment with EC50 > 100 mg/l; coupled with the fact that the substance is readily biodegradable, it can be concluded that environmental classification of Diutan under CLP regulation (1272/2006/EC) is not warranted.
