Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 reaction mass containing mainly 1,2-dichloropropane is a liquid with a vapour pressure of 78.1 mmHg (at 20°C), water solubility of 1.88 g/l (at 20°C) and a log Pow of 2.2 (see section 4).
Based upon the low log Pow of 2.2, little or no accumulation of the reaction mass containing mainly 1,2 -dichloropropane in environmental species is expected.
In parallel, a relevant study is available for the main constituent of the reaction mass. Actually, no biodegradation of 1,2 -dichloropropane was detected when the substance (150 mg/l) was incubated aerobically with municipal activated sludge (1000 mg/l mixed liquor suspended solids) for 28 days in an OECD 302B (modified EMPA Zahn-Wellens test), conducted according to GLP requirements (Gonsior et al, 2002).
Taking into account the above study, we can consider the reaction mass containing mainly 1,2-dichloropropane as not readily biodegradable due to the fact that its main constituent (typically 71.2 % in 1,2-dichloropropane) is not biodegradable under the tests conditions of a relevant study.
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.
