Additional information

In accordance with REACH Regulation 1907/2006, Annex IX, Column 2, tests for effects on soil micro-organisms do not need to be conducted as direct and indirect exposure of the soil compartment is unlikely. The substance has little potential to adsorb to soil and is not persistent. According to the available information about production and processing of the substance, and the uses identified, direct releases of the substance to the terrestrial compartment can be excluded. EUSES modelling indicates that indirect releases, if occurring during use, are not a concern for the soil compartment.
