Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

Neither DINA nor its primary degradation products are expected to be bioaccumulative. Due to their readily biodegradable nature, extensive degradation of these substances in conventional STPs will take place and only low concentrations are expected to be released into the environment. Once present in the aquatic compartment, further biodegradation will occur and, depending on their log Pow, water solubility and adsorption potential, DINA (and its metabolites) will be bioavailable to aquatic organisms such as fish mainly via water or on the other hand via feed and contact with suspended organic particles. After uptake by fish species, extensive and fast biotransformation of DINA by carboxylesterases into adipic acid and isononanol is expected. The alcohol is used by these organisms as their main source of energy throughout all the different life stages (early development, growth, reproduction, etc.). Adipic acid does not have the potential to accumulate in adipose tissue due to their low log Pow. The key study (performed with a suitablwe read across substance) reports a BCF value of 27, which clearly indicate that rapid metabolism takes place even when log Pow values are above the trigger value of 4.5. The supporting BCF/BAF values, estimated with the BCFBAF v3.01 program, confirm the experimental result (all well below 2000).

The information above provides strong evidence supporting the statement that rapid metabolism and low bioaccumulation potential can be expected for DINA and its metabolites.
