Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

- Algae: ErC50 (72 h) > 78 mg/L (geom. mean meas., OECD 201); read across from CAS 6009-70-7
Chronic toxicity
- Fish: no data available
- Aquatic invertebrates: no data available
- Algae: NOErC (72 h) ≥78 mg/L (geom. mean meas., OECD 201); read across from CAS 6009-70-7
Conclusion on classification
Acute aquatic toxicity data are available for an appropriate read across substance for two trophic levels (aquatic invertebrates and algae) while chronic toxicity data are available for algae. Neither short nor long term effects were observed in any of the conducted studies. Furthermore the substance is rapidly biodegradable. Thus dipotassium oxalate anhydrate (CAS 583-52-8) is not classified and labelled for environmental hazard according to the consolidated version of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (dated: 01.01.2017) and further amendments (ATPs).
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.
