Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The EPI Suite has estimated that tert-butyl-4-methoxyphenol is expected to be found predominantly in soil and its persistence estimate is based on its availability in this medium. Half-life of tert-butyl-4-methoxyphenol in soil was estimated to be 1800 hrs. which exceeds the EPA criteria of >= 2 months (and <= 6 months). Therefore, tert-butyl-4-methoxyphenol is estimated to be persistent in the soil environment.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Half-life in soil:
1 800 h
at the temperature of:
25 °C
