EC number: 265-078-2 | CAS number: 64741-77-1 A complex combination of hydrocarbons from distillation of the products from a hydrocracking process. It consists predominantly of saturated hydrocarbons having carbon numbers predominantly in the range of C10 through C18, and boiling in the range of approximately 160°C to 320°C (320°F to 608°F).

Description of key information
Information available indicates that this category can be considered readily biodegradable.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Biodegradation in water:
- readily biodegradable
Additional information
Degradation was achieved at varying levels in the available tests. Two tests indicate that the substance is readily biodegradable (ignoring the 10 day window). As the 10 day window is not relevant to UVCB substances, therefore the substance is considered readily biodegradable.
Two studies indicate that this category is not readily biodegradable (Lee, 1993, and Canale, 1999). The study by Lee (1993) has been read across from the other gas oils category.
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.
