Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information
The hydrolytic stability of mesityl oxide has been tested according to OECD 111. In a preliminary test the test item was dissolved in aqueous solutions buffered at pH 4, 7 and 9 and incubated at 50 ± 1.8 °C for maximum of 5 days.
In the incubated samples at pH 4, 7 and 9 no significant reduction of the test item concentration was observed. After incubation time of 5 days the test item concentration were determined to be higher than 90 % of the initial concentrations.
Therefore, it can be estimated that the half-life time of Mesityl Oxide is higher than one year at 25 °C at all pH values tested.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.
