Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
A key study on glycerine carbonate (Belarde et al., 2003) indicated that the substance is readily biodegradable. Therefore, hydrolysis on function of pH can be waived. A very low Koc was observed in a study from Reimer et al. (2003). Bioaccumulation of glycerine carbonate is not expected because of very low Kow.
A hydrolysis experiment with methyle carbonate (MEC) was performed. MEC contains a hydroxygroup and this hydroxy group is removed from the site of hydrolysis by at least 3 atoms, making MEC a suitable surrogate for jeffsol GC. Based on the results jeffsol GC is hydrolytically unstable at acidic pH. Therefore, given the above hydrolysis half-life of the surrogate MEC under acidic conditions (9 days at 20C°), it is likely that the half-life of jeffsol GC would be comparable to the MEC half-life under acidic conditions.
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.
