Conclusion on classification

Environmental classification for the poorly water soluble substances under consideration is based on the lowest acute and chronic threshold values from the platinum ecotoxicity test data combined with TDp test data generated as outlined in OECD Guidance Document on Transformation/Dissolution of Metals and Metal Compounds in Aqueous Media (OECD, 2001).

Platinum dioxide has been tested in a full TDp assay according to OECD TG29 (cfr. details in IUCLID section 4 'Water solubility'). Platinum dioxide dissolution [in µg/L]

in this assay is summarised as:
  24h Screening* 7d TDp 28d TDp
    MWt Pt Wt% 100 mg/L@pH6 100 mg/L@pH8.5 1 mg/L 10 mg/L 100 mg/L 1 mg/L
Platinum dioxide PtO2 227.08 85.9 107 101 1.4 12.4 112.7 1.3

*values in bold give the highest metal release. The consequent 7 and 28 day tests are performed at this pH value.

The acute and chronic ERV values, derived for other soluble platinum(IV) subtances, are 20.5 (48h EC50 value for D. magna with hexachloroplatinic acid (Moll and Wydra, 2005)) and 7 µg Pt/L (21d NOEC for D. magna with hexachloroplatinic acid (Biesinger and Christensen, 1972) and 72h EC10 for P. subcapitate with dihydrogen hexahydroxyplatinate, compound with 2-aminoethanol (Wenzel, 2016)) corresponding to 23.9 and 8.2 µg PtO2/L (conversion based on molecular weight conversion from soluble ion to the substance considered)

Comparing the acute and chronic ERV values with the TDp test results (cfr table below) as outlined in ECHA Guidance on the application of the CLP criteria (version 5.0; ECHA, 2017), it is concluded that the metal release at all doses and duration relevant for classificiation are well below the ERV values, and that no classification for environmental hazard is required:

  Acute ERV
(µg TI/L)
Chronic ERV
(µg TI/L)
24h Screening* 7d TDp 28d TDp Acute aquatic hazard Long-term aquatic hazard
    MWt Pd Wt% 100 mg/L@pH6 100 mg/L@pH8.5 1 mg/L 10 mg/L 100 mg/L 1 mg/L
Platinum dioxide PtO2 227.08 85.9 23.86 8.15 107 101 1.6 12.4 112.7 1.3 not classified not classified

*values in bold give the highest metal release. The consequent 7 and 28 day tests are performed at this pH value.
