Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Wolt JD, Shepler K, Marx M, McGovern P & Ruzo LO (1991): The extrapolated Flumetsulam half-life of light exposed and dark control samples is 87 days (R=0.97) and 321 days (R=0.56), respectively.
Wolt J, Shepler K, Yung V (1991): Degradation was found to occur in irradiated samples (t1/2 = 80 days, R2= 0.51) and in dark controls (t1/2 = 127 days, R2= 0.57.
Wolt JD, Shepler K, Chari S, McGovern P & Ruzo LO (1991): Degradation was found to occur in irradiated samples (t1/2=90 days, R=0.97) and in dark controls (t1/2 = 115 days, R=0.98).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Half-life in soil:
- 85.67 d
Additional information
As all of the studies were of equal reliability with very similar results, a weight of evidence approach was used. A mean average half-life for soil photolysis from the three studies has been used to address this endpoint:
Mean t1/2 = (80 + 87 + 90) / 3 = 85.67 days
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
