Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Additional information
The substance dehydroacetic acid, sodium salt (DHA-Na, CAS 4418-26-2) is characterized by a high water solubility (231 g/L, 20 °C, OECD 105), a low estimated log Kow (-4.38, EpiSuite v4.11, KOWWIN v1.68) and a low estimated log Koc (-0.2667, EpiSuite v4.11, KOCWIN v2.00, MCI method). Based on the physico-chemical properties the substance will preferentially distribute into the water compartment. According to experimental results the substance is readily biodegradable (70% biodegradation after 28 d), which indicates that the target substance will be eliminated in both aquatic and terrestrial environments. Therefore, abiotic hydrolysis is not a relevant degradation pathway.
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.
