Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Background level of aluminium in European surface waters: 0.075 mg/l (0.057 mg/l for manganese respectively). Furthermore, the reducing conditions found in groundwater and some lakes and reservoirs favour high manganese levels; concentrations up to 1300 μg/litre in neutral groundwater and 9600 μg/litre in acidic groundwater have been reported. (Manganese in Drinking-water, Background document for development of WHO Guidelines for Drinking-water Quality, WHO/SDE/WSH/03.04/104). The mean concentration of aluminium in groundwater is < 1 μg/l (acidic groundwater: > 100 μg/l) (Forschungszentrums Jülich Reihe Umwelt / Environment Band / Volume 47, Jülich, 2004). Solubility of Galaxite: < 0.008 mg/l for aluminium, 0.031 mg/l for manganese. No PNEC value can be determined due to the insolubility of Galaxite in water.

Conclusion on classification

The substance has a low potency with respect to environmental toxicity. Classification and labelling is not required.
