Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
Additional information
All available short-term studies show effect concentrations > 8.5 mg/L (D. galeata exposed to 5 -methyl-1H-benzotriazole) indicating a low acute toxicity towards aquatic organisms. Lowest available long-term effect values has been found in studies with Daphnia galeata (EC10(21d) =0.97 mg/L (1H-Benzotriazole), EC10(21d) =0.4 mg/L (5 -methyl-1H-benzotriazole)), Desmodesmus subspicatus (EC10(72h) =1.18 mg/L (1H-Benzotriazole), EC10(72h) =2.86 mg/L (5 -methyl-1H-benzotriazole)), and Lemna minor (EC10(7d) =3.94 mg/L (1H-Benzotriazole), EC10(7d) =2.11 mg/L (5 -methyl-1H-benzotriazole)) indicating a moderate toxicity to aquatic organisms.
In summary, fish is considered as the least sensitive trophic level and therefore no further testing on long-term effects in fish has been proposed. Furthermore results from testing on microorganism indicate a low hazard to STPs only.
Based on the results from the chronic studies with D. galeata 1H-Benzotriazole, Tolyltriazole as well as their conjugated sodium salts are classified as hazardous to the aquatic environment category Chronic 2 according Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
Due to the high workload before the deadline, additionally existing studies with Sodium Benzotriazolate were not included in this dossier but will be considered at a later stage. However the available results from these studies will not alter the Hazard assessment.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
