Ecological Information

Environmental toxicity, biodegradation, and bioaccumulation data

12.7 Other adverse effects

Not available

12.1 Toxicity

Not provided.

12.1 Toxicity

Acute toxicity with fish: LC50 Gambusia affinis = 125 mg/l/96 hours

Toxicity

Based on the weight of evidence, invertebrates show similar sensitivity or greater than fishes in acute ecotoxicity tests with sodium hypochlorite.

Toxicity

Chronic toxicity with fish: Upon prolonged exposure concentrations of 25-100 mg/l produced significant changes in the biology of the fish. Acute toxicity with crustaceans: LC50 Ceriodaphnia cf dubia = 40 mg/l/48 hours. The toxicity threshold concentration for Daphnia magna was reported to range from 40 to 240 mg/l.

Toxicity

EC50 Daphnia magna > 1 mg/l; tested on a mixture containing sodium hypochlorite (immobilization test of Daphnia, in accordance with OECD 202)

Toxicity

Acute toxicity with algae: Standard tests for acute toxicity for algae are not considered technically feasible for sodium hypochlorite. Chronic toxicity with algae: Not available

Other adverse effects

12.1 Toxicity

Toxicity data on soil micro- and macroorganisms: EC50 Photobacterium phosphoreum = 22 mg/l/15 minutes (4) NaOH. Toxicity data on birds, bees and plants: Not available.

12.2 Persistence and degradability

NaOH : It is highly soluble in water and dissociates to sodium and hydroxide ions, with the effect of increasing pH and alkalinity. Na+ and OH- persist indefinitely in the environment with equilibrium between various forms of complexes and precipitates. (7)

12.6 Endocrine disrupting properties

12.2 Persistence and degradability

The persistence in atmospheric compartment is considered as negligible. At environmental pH (6.5 -8.5), sodium hypochlorite is dissociated into hypochlorous acid and hypochlorite anion (50:50). Only the fraction of hypochlorous acid is volatile. The Henry's Law constant, measured for hypochlorous acid, is 0.0097 Pa m3 mol-1; this suggests that the concentration in air is very low. Therefore the atmospheric compartment is not considered as a significant exposure route. The persistence in soil is considered as very low (Koc, calculated by QSAR = 0.57). The persistence in aquatic compartment is evaluated as poor, in view of the rapid degradation of the substance. Hypochlorite degrades very rapidly (about 300 seconds) in the presence of organic matrixes. Photo-oxidation, photolysis: Sodium hypochlorite is sensitive to light; sunlight decreases the half-life of a solution containing 10-15% of free chlorine by 3-4 times. Degradability: ready degradability in fresh water and sea water: not applicable; sodium hypochlorite is an inorganic substance. Degradability of metabolites: not significant; sodium hypochlorite is degraded into chlorine.

12.3 Bioaccumulative potential

Not provided.

12.4 Mobility in soil

The persistence in soil is considered as very low (Koc, calculated by QSAR = 0.57).

12.5 Results of PBT and vPvB assessment

Not provided.

12.6 Endocrine disrupting properties

Not provided.

12.7 Other adverse effects

Not provided.

12. Bioaccumulation potential

Considering its high water solubility, NaOH is not expected to bio concentrate in organisms.

NaOH is not expected to bioaccumulate due to its high water solubility.

12. Mobility in soil

NaOH is very soluble and mobile in water. In soil, mobility depends directly on the importance of the liquid phase of the soil and the possibility to form metal hydroxo-complexes with metal solid species. (3)

NaOH is highly mobile in water and soil, depending on liquid phase and metal complex formation.

12. Results of PBT and vPvB assessment

Chemical Safety Report and PBT assessment: not performed.

PBT assessment was not performed.

12.2 Persistence and degradability

It is not persistent

The substance is not persistent.

12.3 Bioaccumulative potential

not bio accumulative

The substance is not bioaccumulative.

12.5 Results of PBT and vPvB assessment

On the basis of the information available in the literature about Sodium Hypochlorite, the substance does not fulfil PBT and vPvB criteria.

The substance does not fulfil PBT and vPvB criteria.

12. Other toxic effects

The effect of NaOH on the organisms depends on the buffer capacity of the aquatic or terrestrial ecosystem. (4)

The effect of NaOH on organisms is dependent on the buffer capacity of the aquatic or terrestrial ecosystem.
