Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusion on classification

Classification based on degradation, bioaccumulation and acute/chronic toxicity data

Degradation

 

Biodegradation: not applicable

Hydrolysis: removal of lanthanum carbonate through hydrolysis process is negligible

Oxidation/reduction: stable oxidation state

 

Therefore, the substance is considered to be abiotic stable under normal environmental condition (pH, temperature).

 

Bioaccumulation

The substance is insoluble. It is expected that the potential of gastrointestinal absorption and cuticular uptake is low. Most Lanthanum carbonate ingested will be excreted soon.

 

Aquatic acute toxicity

No effects on short term toxicity up to the limit of water solubility (for fish, invertebrates and algae).

 

Aquatic chronic toxicity

No effects on long term toxicity up to the limit of water solubility (for invertebrates and algae).

 

 

Based on the data above, Lanthanum carbonate is considered to be abiotic stable and indicate a low potential of bioaccumulation.

 

Classification and labelling according to the consolidated version of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 and further amendments (ATPs):

The acute classification follows from acute aquatic toxicity showing no effects up to the limit of water solubility in species from three trophic levels. Therefore, Lanthanum carbonate is not classified for acute (short-term) aquatic hazard.

The chronic classification is based from chronic aquatic toxicity also showing no effects up to the limit of water solubility in two species and because the substance is considered to be abiotic stable and indicate a low bioaccumulation potential.

Therefore, Lanthanum carbonate is not classified for chronic (long-term) aquatic hazard.

M-factor for acute aquatic toxicity: not need to be assigned

M-factor for chronic aquatic toxicity: not need to be assigned

Therefore, Lanthanum carbonate is not classified for acute (short-term) and chronic (long-term) aquatic hazards.
