Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The test item was biodegradable 63 % at day 28 in the closed bottle test according to OECD guideline 301D (2018). Therefore, it is considered readily biodegradable.

Additional information

The ready biodegradability of the test item was assessed according to OECD guideline 301D (2018). The test item was biodegraded 63 % at day 28 in the Closed Bottle test. Therefore, it can be concluded that the test item is readily biodegradable.

 

The performance of simulation tests for biodegradation in water and sediment is scientifically unjustified.

REACH Regulation No. 1907/2006, Annex IX, Sect. 9.2.1.2, Col. 2, states as follows:

“9.2.1.2: The study need not to be conducted:

-if the substance is readily biodegradable, or

-if direct and indirect exposure of sediment is unlikely. ”

Direct and indirect exposure of the test item to water and sediment is highly unlikely. Furthermore, the test item is readily biodegradable, therefore simulation testing for biodegradation in water and/or sediment was considered not scientifically justified.

 

The performance of tests for biodegradation in soil is scientifically unjustified.

REACH Regulation No. 1907/2006, Annex IX, Sect. 9.2.1.3, Col. 2, states as follows:

“9.2.1.3: The study need not to be conducted:

-if the substance is readily biodegradable, or

-if direct and indirect exposure of soil is unlikely. ”

Direct and indirect exposure of the test item to water and sediment is highly unlikely. Furthermore, the test item is considered to be readily biodegradable, therefore simulation testing for biodegradation in soil was considered not scientifically justified.
