Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

The reference substance, CAS No. 20566 -35 -2, and structural analogs were used to model the ecotoxicology of the UVCB substance. See attachment for structures and substances modeled. Predicted hydrolysis products are tetrabromophthalic acid and alcohols. IUCLID Data Sets and/or OECD SIDS profiles are available on the structural analogs modeled. See attachment for data and references.

Conclusion on classification

Based on modeling, the PNEC-aqua for the reference substance is 0.009 mg/L for intermittent releases. This is based upon the lowest of 3 short-term L(E)C estimated values (0.9 mg/L) with an assessment factor of 100. This effect level is clearly above the water solubility, estimated by WSKOW v1.41 as 0.057 mg/L. The reference substance is not expected to bioconcentration/bioaccumulate.

TBPA Diol is a UVCB substance, and because of that performing aquatic studies with analytical confirmation of dose levels is not possible. The molecule used to estimate the toxicity of the product is a worst case for aquatic toxicity since the remaining molecules in the product are monomers and polymers. Therefore, and in line with the Guidance on the application of the CLP criteria, Part 4 -4.1.3.3.2 an environmental classification would not be justified.
