Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

PBT assessment
Administrative data
PBT assessment: overall result
- Name:
- Lauroyl chloride
- Type of composition:
- legal entity composition of the substance
- State / form:
- liquid
- Reference substance:
- Lauroyl chloride
- PBT status:
- the substance is not PBT / vPvB
- Justification:
Due to the rapid hydrolysis of lauroyl chloride, the environmental assessment is mainly based on its hydrolysis product lauric acid (CAS 143-7-7) and its sodium salt (sodium laurate, CAS 629-25-4). Lauric acid is not P/vP since it is readily biodegradable based on a weight of evidence approach. The hydrolysis product is also not B/vB based on an experimentally derived BCF of 252 L/kg (read-across approach to sodium laurate). Lauric acid is not T since, the lowest available chronic value is > 0.01 mg/L (algae: 72 -h ErC10 = 1.1 mg/L; read-across approach to sodium laurate) and the substance has no toxicological relevant labelling.
Reference
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.
