Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Half-life for hydrolysis:
204 d
at the temperature of:
25 °C

Additional information

The primary hydrolysis tests indicates that the substance is hydrolyzed less than 10% within 5 days at 50°C in the pH buffers 4 and 7 but at pH9, about 23% and 13% hydrolysis was observed for the components C18:1 and C18:2, respectively. In the advanced test at pH9 at temperatures of 20, 50 and 70°C, half-lives for the C18:1 were observed of 6211, 549 and 1149 hours, respectively. For the component C18:2, half-lives were observed of 9316, 589 and 2455 hours at 20, 50 and 70°C, respectively.

Using the Arrhenius relationship, a half-life at 25°C was calculated for the two components of 3616 hours (151 days) for C18:1 component and a half-life of 4893 hours (204 days) for C18:2 component.
