Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

This substance is a reaction mass of dipropylene glycol dibenzoate (DPGDB), diethylene glycol dibenzoate (DEGDB) and triethylene glycol dibenzoate (TEGDB). No aquatic toxicity testing has been performed on the reaction mass itself but data are available for DPGDB, DEGDB and TEGDB individually. All the studies were performed according to international test guidelines and in compliance with GLP.  Short-term toxicity to invertebrates studies were carried out on each of the components of the reaction mass using Daphnia magna.  These data demonstrate that the components of the reaction mass have similar environmental profiles with all EC50 values in the same order of magnitude, >1.0 mg/L and <10 mg/L.  A long-term toxicity to invertebrates study (OECD 211) of the component DPGDB is available.  A long-term toxicity to invertebrates study (OECD 211) with the reaction mass substance itself is in progress and this dossier will be updated upon completion of that study.   Until that study is completed the long-term toxicity to invertebrates test conducted with the component DPGDB is the best currently available data representative of the reaction mass substance.
