Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

In a valid OECD 301B test a mean degradation rate after 28 d of 10-20% CO2/ThCO2  was recorded.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Biodegradation in water:
under test conditions no biodegradation observed

Additional information

In a valid OECD 301B test a mean degradation rate after 28 d of 10-20% CO2/ThCO2 was recorded. Acccording to the test result the substance is not biodegradable under the chosen conditions. However, additional simulation with QSAR using the Biowin family Biowin 1-6 predicts contradicting result indicating that the substance will biodegradate fast. The non -linear model of Biowin 2 and the ultimate biodegradation time of Biowin 3 calculate values of 0.66 and 2.96, respectively. Furthermore, the Miti non-linear model predicting of Biowin 6 indictes a fast biodegradation (>0.6).
