Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

In contrast to natural background exposure, no relevant exposure (linked to manufacturing or use of cesium carbonate) of the terrestrial compartment is to expect, as cesium has no potential to adsorb to soil and carbonates are natural components of soil minerals. According to the available data, an input via sludge application on agricultural soil is considered to be negligible, as cesium carbonate does not adsorb to the sewage sludge to a significant extent. Pursuant to its physico-chemical properties cesium carbonate is not expected to be distributed into soil. The log Pow is estimated to be around ≤ 0 due to its salt character and good water solubility as expected for an inorganic salt. It can be concluded, that the risk for the terrestrial compartment is low and no further information and/or testing is needed.
