Description of key information

The atmospheric oxidation half-life of Sodium Cocoyl glutamate was estimated using the level III multimedia model. It was estimated that the substance is not persistent in air medium as the half life period of Sodium Cocoyl glutamate in air is only 0.79 days.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Half-life in air:
0.79 d
Degradation rate constant with OH radicals:
0 cm³ molecule-1 s-1

Additional information

OVERALL OH Rate Constant = 0.00000000002 cm3/molecule-sec.

The atmospheric oxidation half-life of Sodium Cocoyl glutamate was estimated using the level III multimedia model. It was estimated that the substance is not persistent in air medium as the half life period of Sodium Cocoyl glutamate in air is only 0.79 days. This indicates that Sodium Cocoyl glutamate is rapidly phototransformed in air
