Additional information
Conclusion on classification
Degradation
Biodegradation: under test conditions no biodegradation observed (7.6% after 28 d, OECD 301B)
Bioaccumulation
Expert statement: Bioaccumulation is assumed to be low.
Aquatic acute toxicity
No observed toxicological effects up to the limit of water solubility
Fish: Danio rerio LL50 (96 h): > 100 mg/L (OECD 203)
Aquatic chronic toxicity
No observed toxicological effects up to the limit of water solubility
Aquatic invertebrates: Daphnia magna NOEC (21 d) ≥ 100 mg/L (OECD 211)
CLP:
Fatty acids, C16-18 and C18-unsatd., hexaesters with
dipentaerythritol (CAS 68604-38-6) is not readily biodegradable. The
bioaccumulation potential of the substance is considered to be low. The
substance is considered to be not acutely or chronically toxic to
aquatic organisms up to the limit of water solubility. Therefore Fatty
acids, C16-18 and C18-unsatd., hexaesters with dipentaerythritol (CAS
68604-38-6) does not meet the criteria for classification and labelling
as environmental hazardous according to the Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008
and the Regulation (EU) No 286/2011 (2nd ATP).
DSD:
Fatty acids, C16-18 and C18-unsatd., hexaesters with
dipentaerythritol (CAS 68604-38-6) is poorly soluble in water and acute
or chronic effects were not observed up to the limit of water
solubility. Therefore Fatty acids, C16-18 and C18-unsatd., hexaesters
with dipentaerythritol (CAS 68604-38-6) does not meet the criteria for
classification and labelling as environmental hazardous according to
Directive 67/548/EEC.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
