Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

After evaporation or exposure to the air, the product will be rapidly degraded by photochemical processes.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Half-life in air:
2.54 h
Degradation rate constant with OH radicals:
5 000 000 cm³ molecule-1 d-1

Additional information

Based on a calculation according to AOPWIN v1.92, the tested substance is indirectly photodegraded by reaction with hydroxyl radicals in the atmosphere with a half-life (t1/2) of about 2.54 hours taking into account a 24-h day and a mean OH radical concentration of 0.5E06 radicals per cm³. (BASF SE, 2010).
