An experimental study was conducted according to the OECD guideline 301F which found that 2,2-bis(formyloxymethyl)propane-1,3-diyl diformate and formic acid was readily biodegradable, having shown approximately 66% degradation within the 10-day window.

 

In addition, the read-across substances formic acid and pentaerythritol were found to be readily biodegradable, whilepropylidynetrimethanol (trimethylolpropane, TMP)was found to be inherently biodegradable.
