Additional information

Conclusion on classification

One key study is available concerning the acute toxicity of Diisopropylbenzene hydroperoxide for each of the three trophic compartments: algae, daphnia and fish. Daphnia is the most sensitive species with EC50 value of 8.2 mg/L. In addition, the toxicity to microorganisms has been determined given EC50 and EC10 of 46.7 mg/L and 10.6 mg/L, respectively.

Diisopropylbenzene hydroperoxide is not readily biodegradable and its log Kow was estimated at 3.2.

Taking into account all these information, the substance is classified Aquatic chronic toxicity 2 (H411) according to CLP.
