Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Metal carboxylates such as bismuth tris(2-ethylhexanoate) are substances consisting of a trivalent bismuth cation and three monovalent hexanoate anions. Based on the solubility of bismuth tris(2-ethylhexanoate) in water, a complete dissociation of bismuth tris(2-ethylhexanoate) resulting in bismuth ions and hexanoate ions may be assumed under environmental conditions. As the concept of hydrolysis is neither applicable to bismuth ions nor to hexanoate ions – which both lack hydrolysable functional groups - this degradative process will not contribute to the fate of bismuth tris(2-ethylhexanoate) in the environment.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
