Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

After evaporation or exposure to the air, dicyclopentadienyl acrylate will be rapidly degraded by photochemical processes.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

There are no experimental data on photodegradation of dicyclopentadienyl acrylate. According to Q(SAR) data using SRC AOP v1.92, dicyclopentadienyl acrylate will be rapidly degraded by photochemical processes after exposure to the air reacting with the photochemically produced hydroxyl radicals and with ozone (calculated half-life for a 12 -hour day and 1.5E06 OH/cm3: 1.687 hours) (BASF SE, 2013).

Thus, photodegradation may play a considerable role under environmental conditions.
