Description of key information

Due to the results of the different screening tests performed the substance is supposed to be not persistent in the environment. It is assumed that the results of simulation studies would not reveal any different findings. Therefore, simulation studies in surface water and sediments are not provided.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Due to the results of the different screening tests performed the substance is supposed to be not persistent in the environment. It is assumed that the results of simulation studies would not reveal any different findings. Therefore, simulation studies in soil are not provided.


 


Potentially forming degradation products have been predicted using a valid QSAR model (CATALOGIC v.5.14.1.5 BOD 28 days MITI (OECD 301C) v.11.16). The substance is within the applicability domain of the model. The model predicted 22 degradation products, of which 9 can be regarded as relevant based on their predicted quantity (see the coresponded endpoint study record). These relevant degradation products were evaluated with regard to their biodegradability and bioaccumulation potential based on QSAR data. Thus they are neither PBT, nor vPvB.
