EC number: 293-262-2 | CAS number: 91053-00-8 A complex combination of hydrocarbons obtained from distillation of the butadiene-free C4 fraction of a naphtha steam-cracking process. It consists predominantly of olefinic hydrocarbons having carbon numbers of C8, C12, C16 and C20 and boiling in the range of approximately 95°C to 120°C (203°F to 248°F).

Description of key information
The terrestrial toxicity was predicted by a QSAR, the PETROTOX v4.0 computer model. PETROTOX is a well-documented and peer reviewed model that is widely used across the chemicals industry. The LL50 values for different terrestrial species range from 122 to 19823736 mg/ kg soil dw. The EL10 values for different terrestrial species range from 23.3 to 3797650 mg/ kg soil dw.
Additional information
The predicted LL50 values for Eisenia fetida ranged from 217 to 1271117 mg/kg soil dw.
The predicted EL10 values for Eisenia fetida ranged from 41.5 to 243509 mg/kg soil dw.
The predicted LL50 values for Folsomia candida ranged from 122 to 714802 mg/kg soil dw.
The predicted LL10 values for Folsomia candida ranged from 23.3 to 136935 mg/kg soil dw.
The predicted EL50 values for Avena sativa ranged from 557 to 3267274 mg/kg soil dw.
The predicted EL10 values for Avena sativa ranged from 107 to 625914 mg/kg soil dw.
The predicted EL50 values for Brassica rapa ranged from 360 to 2109529 mg/kg soil dw.
The predicted EL10 values for Brassica rapa ranged from 68.9 to 404124 mg/kg soil dw.
The predicted EL50 values for Nitrobacter ranged from 3379 to 19823736 mg/kg soil dw.

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). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
