Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Executive summary:

Aquatic PNEC is used to calculate the benthic PNEC using a Kpsed of 50000 L/kg.

Description of key information

PNEC for benthic organisms is calculated applying the equilibrium partitioning method using a Kpsed (or Kdsed) of 7972 L/kg

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Distribution constants for Di-C16 -18 Tetramine

 

Kpsoil

3986 L/kg

Ksoil-water

5979 m3/m3

Kpsusp

7972 L/kg

Ksusp-water

1993 m3/m3

Kpsed

3986 L/kg

Ksed-water

1993 m3/m3

 

The PNECsed is then calculated using the equations detailed in REACH guidance R.16:

                         PNECsed                         =   Ksusp-water* PNECaquatic dissolved* 1000 * 1 / RHOsusp

Where:         PNECaquatic             =      1 µg/L

                         Ksusp-water                     =      1993 m3/m3

                         RHOsusp                         =      1150 kg.m-3(TGD, equ. 18)

                         PNECsed-EPM                = 1.733 mg/kg ww

                                                                = 7.97 mg/kg dw
