Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Previous assessment by HSE had questioned the validity of this test and hence recommended to classify FP-100 as bioaccumulative. The study has been reviewed by an ecotoxicologist and his comments are in the document attached below. His evalaution confirms that the study is valid and that the substance is not bioaccumulative.
