Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Short-term fish, Daphnia and algae toxicity studies are available on the test substance, C16-18 AMP. Based on the results from the available studies, Daphnia have been identified to be the most sensitive species. The short-term 48 h EC50 value for the test substance in Daphnia was considered to be at 0.15 mg/L (measured) and the long-term equivalent ErC10 value from the algae study was at 0.06 mg/L (measured). Therefore, based on the available results and considering that the substance is not readily biodegradable, the test substance, C16-18 AMP, warrants classification as Aquatic Acute 1 and Aquatic Chronic 1; H410: Very toxic to aquatic life with long-lasting effects according to the EU CLP criteria (Regulation 1272/2008/EC). ). M factors to be applied are 1 for acute and 1 for chronic toxicity.
