Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The results of pH 7.0 and pH 9.0 showed no significant degradation of the substance at 50 °C. Even at pH 4.0 and 50 °C, the degradation of the substance was less than 10 % after 5 days. Therefore, the substance was considered to be hydrolytically stable.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Half-life for hydrolysis:
1 yr
at the temperature of:
25 °C

Additional information

The hydrolysis determination of the substance at different pH values was based on the OECD Guideline No. 111, "Hydrolysis as a Function of pH"; adopted May 12, 1981 and on the EEC Directive 92/69, Section C.7, "Abiotic Degradation: Hydrolysis as a Function of pH", L383 A, December 1992. As recommended in the guidelines, a preliminary test (Tier 1) was conducted at a temperature of 50 °C and pH 4.0, 7.0, and 9.0.

The results of pH 7.0 and pH 9.0 showed no significant degradation of the substance at 50 °C. Even at pH 4.0 and 50 °C, the degradation of the substance was less than 10 % after 5 days. According to the EEC Directive 92/69, Section C.7, it can be concluded that the estimated half-life time is higher than one year under representative environmental conditions (25°C). Therefore, the substance was considered to be hydrolytically stable, and no further testing was necessary.
