Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
The Dawson study showed that after 120 hours at pH 4, 7, and 9, and 50 ºC, less than 10% hydrolysis had occurred, demonstrating an equivalent environmental half-life of greater than 1 year at all three pH values. No further testing was necessary, as this investigation indicated that Flumetsulam is hydrolytically stable under acidic, neutral, and basic conditions.
The Lehmann and Miller study showed that under U.S. EPA Pesticide Assessment Guidelines (161 -1), the hydrolysis of the substance was studied at approximately 0.6 ppm, in the dark, at 25 degrees C, in sterile, dilutely buffered water at solution pHs of 5, 7, and 9. The substance was stable to hydrolysis under these conditions, exhibiting no loss of the parent compound after 66 days of incubation.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The two studies are both considered reliable and provide consistent results. Dawson J (1995a) was chosen as the key study as this was conducted to an EU test method, C.7, whereas Lehmann RG and Miller JR (1988) was conducted according to an EPA method.
The substance can be considered to be hydrolytically stable.
In the absence of significant hydrolysis a half-life has not been calculated.
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).
