Additional information
Conclusion on classification
Classification related key information
Biodegradation in water: under test conditions no biodegradation observed
Bioaccumulation in organisms is negligible, based on the calculated log Pow of -3.67
Acute toxicity:
- to Fish: LC50 (96h) = 100 mg/L (nominal)
- to aquatic invertebrates: EC50 (48h) = 2.2 mg/L (nominal)
- to Algae: ErC50 (72h) = 0.5 mg/L (nominal)
Chronic toxicity:
- to aquatic invertebrates: EC10 (21d) = 1.9 mg/L (nominal; read-across)
- to Algae: NOEC (72h) = 0.16 mg/L (nominal)
Classification justification according to CLP
According to the data listed above Amines, polyethylenepoly (PEPA) is not readily or inherently biodegradable. The acute aquatic toxicity L(E)C50 is < 1 mg/L. The chronic NOEC is < 1 mg/L. Based on the available data the self-classification for Amines, polyethylenepoly would be Acute Cat1 and Chronic 2 according to the consolidated version of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (date: 01.01.2017) and further amendments (ATPs). Amines, polyethylenepoly (PEPA) is listed on Annex VI to CLP (in force from 1 December 2018). The harmonised classification and labelling is Acute Cat. 1 and Chronic Cat. 1 according to Annex VI to CLP.
M-factor for acute aquatic toxicity: 1
M-factor for chronic aquatic toxicity: no factor assigned
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
