Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

For the test item Potassium permanganate were derived:

PNEC(freshwater) = 0.00006 mg/l

PNEC(aqua intermittent releases) = 0.0006 mg/l

PNEC (STP) = 1.64 mg/l

With regard to test results it seems to be crustaceans (daphnia) more sensitive to the test item then fish or algae, therefore EC(50) of daphnia was selected as basic value to evaluation of PNECs for aquatic organisms.

Conclusion on classification

The test item, Potassium permanganate, is classified according to Directive 67/548/EEC for aquatic environment as dangerous (N) with risk phrase R50/53 (very toxic to aquatic organisms, may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment).
