Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Substance characterisation
(Hydroxyethyl)urea is well-soluble in water (±720 g/L). It has a measured log Kow of -1.8 and low calculated Koc of 0.31 L/kg. Based on these results, sorption to organic material and lipids will be limited and bioaccumulation is not expected to occur. With the low Henry's Law Constant (2.17 * 10^(-7) Pa .m3/mol at 20°C) the rate of volatilization is considered negligible.
The substance is readily biodegradable when tested under standard test conditions according to OECD TG 301B.
Considering the low sorption potential of the substance a rapid degradation in soil and sediment is anticipated.
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.
