Description of key information

From experimental study biodegradation of test substance 2-aminobenzenesulphonic acid in soil done by soil microflora in >64 days. Therefore, Benzimidazole-2-thiol is estimated to be not persistent in the soil environment that not exceed the criteria for persistent i.e 120 days as per Annex XIII of REACH.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Half-life in soil:
64 d
