Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

NExBTL renewable diesel is not classified as ”Toxic” or ”Harmful” with at least R48 or R60-R64, hence no formal assessment of secondary poisoning is required. However a PNECoral has been derived for the record, which demonstrates no concern with regard to possible secondary poisoning.

Conclusion on classification

According to the CLP regulation Table 4.1.0., a substance is categorized as hazardous for aquatic environment if LC50 > 10 to < 100 mg/l (Chronic Category 3) or if it is lipophilic (log Kow ≥ 4) and not rapidly biodegradable ("Safety net" classification, Chronic Category 4). Since LC50 of all the acute toxicity tests was ≥ 100 mg/l and the test material was found readily biodegradable in OECD CO2 evolution test 301B, the test material is not classified as hazardous to aquatic environment. According to DSD regulation, the test material is not classified as hazardous to aquatic environment either.
