Registration Dossier
Registration Dossier
Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
There are no adsorption/desorption test data for the test substance. It is assumed that equilibrium partitioning to soil and associated organic matter is an irrelevant fate mechanism. As the MDI substances will be rapidly reacted with associated pore water, adsorbed water, and organic matter associated with soil particles, no accumulation is expected in soil. Because of this reactivity, the migration of MDI substances through soil is not possible, and the substance cannot occur as a contaminant in groundwater. A Koc value of 8200 L/kg can be estimated with the Molecular Connectivity Index of the Estimation Program Interface Suite (v.4.00, 2009) for monomeric MDI. However, this value has no scientific meaning due to the reactivity of MDI substances with water (interstitial pore water).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The test substances of the methylenediphenyl isocyanate (MDI) category react quickly with water and hence will be rapidly hydrolysed in contact with aqueous media (T1/2 = 20h). As a result, persistence in soil is unlikely.
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.
