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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Adsorption / desorption
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- adsorption / desorption: screening
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because the substance and its relevant degradation products decompose rapidly
- Justification for type of information:
- Magnesium diethyl dicarbonate hydrolyse very rapidly in contact with moisture or water. Based on the available data it can be considered that magnesium diethyl dicarbonate and its hydrolysis products ethanol and magnesium hydroxide have a low potential for adsorption to soil. The degradation products ethanol and magnesium hyroxide are natural occuring substances, ethanol is readily biodegradable.

Additional information
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.
