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

Based on its physico-chemical properties such the water solubility (> 1000 g/L) and the potential for adsorption (Koc: 22.6 L/Kg), the surface water was expected to be the main target for environmental distribution of 2-(2-ethoxyethoxy)ethyl acetate (CAS 112-15-2). This is supported by Level III fugacity distribution modeling indicating that ca. 90% of the substance will be available in surface water compartment and ca. 7% in air (Corti, 2021). However, due to its ready biodegradability and the susceptibility for indirect photodegradation in air the substance will not persist in these compartments.
