Description of key information

Additional information

SFL is primarily composed of inorganic substances (the major constituent is calcium carbonate, along with silicon dioxide and a small amount of other inorganic salts) and therefore does not undergo biodegradation. The inorganic portion will be degraded in the environment by means other than biodegradation. The remainder of SFL is composed of organic plant material which is naturally present in the environment. Although SFL itself is not readily biodegradable (Degussa, 2007), the organic portion will undergo ultimate degradation in the environment.
