Description of key information

Due to the low log Pow accumulation in organisms is not to be expected.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

In the presence of water, maleic anhydride rapidly hydrolyses forming maleic acid. Both substances have a low log Pow (maleic anhydride: -2.61, maleic acid: -0.48 and thus they are not expected to accumulate in organisms.
