Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
The 48h-EC50 exceeded an average exposure concentration of 0.31 mg/l, which was higher than the maximum water solubility (< 0.025 mg/l).
Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information
The acute toxicity to daphanie was conducted according to e OECD guideline No. 202, twenty daphnids per concentration (5 per replicate, 4 replicates) were exposed to a control and a WAF prepared at a loading rate of 100 mg/l. Additionally, 10 daphnids per concentration were exposed to dilutions containing 0.1, 1.0 and 10% of the WAF prepared at a loading rate of 100 mg/l. The test duration was 48 hours and samples for analytical confirmation of test concentrations were taken at the start and at the end of the test. The actual concentration in the sample taken from the WAF prepared at 100 mg/l at the start of the test was 0.76 mg/l. The measured concentration decreased to 0.13 mg/l at the end of the exposure period. Based on these results, the average exposure concentration was estimated to correspond to 0.31 mg/l.
Thus, 48h-EC50 is greater than 0.31 mg/L (measured concentration) under the test conditions, which was higher than the maximum water solubility (< 0.025 mg/l). Due to the very low solubility of Epikote P in water (< 0.025 mg/l), concentration levels that might be toxic for Daphnia magna could not be reached.
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).
