Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

EC/EL50 >LoS (expert judgement and read-across)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

No data are available for the short term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates with Alcohols, C16-17, branched and linear. The short term toxicity to aquatic imvertebrates has been estimated by read-across and expert judgement to be above the limit of solubility (LoS). Alcohols, C16-17, branched and linear is made up of C16 and 17 branched and linear alcohols. Across the alcohols category it is possible to see from Table 1 that no short term toxicity to invertebrate is achieved at the LoS for alcohols ¿C14.
From Table 2, it is possible to see that the EC(EL)50 values are not achieved for Alcohols,C14-15, branched and linear. Since the water solubility decreases with increasing chain length, also for UVCB alcohols in table 2, and given the compoistion of the substance, it is safe to predict that EC(EL)50 would not be achieved at the LoS.
