Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusion on classification

Official classification:

Aquatic compartment

According to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 Annex VI Table 3.1 and Table 3.2 the substance holds no relevant classification.

 

Self-classification:

Aquatic compartment

Following CLP the substance is not considered to be acutely hazardous to the aquatic environment.

Following CLP the substance is not considered to be chronically hazardous to aquatic organisms.

 

Rationale:

According to the criteria outlined in Table 4.1.0(a) (Commission Regulation (EU) No 286/2011 amending Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008), the substance (CAS 280-57-9) is not to be classified as acutely hazardous to the aquatic environment since the acute toxicity to aquatic organisms (LC/EC50) is greater than 100 mg/L in all cases.

Long-term toxicity data are available for daphnia and algae. Therefore, classification is based on the available chronic data and on acute toxicity data for the trophic level not covered by chronic data (fish).

 

Chronic toxicity data:

The lowest EC10 is > 1 mg/L (Daphnia, 21d EC10 = 12.3 mg/L; QSAR Toolbox, BASF SE, 2022) indicating that the substance does not present a long-term hazard according to the categories outlined in Table 4.1.0(b) (i) (Commission Regulation (EU) No 286/2011 amending Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008) for non-rapidly degradable substances.

 

Acute toxicity data:

The LC50 determined for fish is > 100 mg/L (Air Products, 2000). The substance is not rapidly degradable, the log Kow is < 4, and the BCF value is < 500. Therefore, according to the criteria outlined in Table 4.1.0(b) (iii) (Commission Regulation (EU) No 286/2011 amending Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008), the substance is not to be classified as chronically hazardous to the aquatic environment.

 

Conclusion:

Following CLP, the substance is not to be classified as acutely/chronically hazardous to the aquatic environment.
