Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Amides, C16 and C18-C20 (even numbered, unsaturated), N,Nā€™-ethylenebis is expected to be stable in water and hydrolysis is not expected.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

According to Column 2, Annex VIII of the EC 1907/2006, testing for this endpoint is not required if the substance is highly insoluble in water. This finding is supported due to the fact that the structural analogue Amides, C16-C18 (even), N,N'-ethylenebis is expected to be stable in water because the only chemical group in the structure of the three components that may be susceptible to hydrolysis is the amide, which is known to be stable at environmentally relevant pH and temperature. Furthermore, the substance is insoluble in water and any hydrolysis occurring will be limited by the amount available in solution (SIDS, 2006).
