Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
An experimental ready biodegradability study according to the OECD 301F guideline is available for 2,2-bis(formyloxymethyl)propane-1,3-diyl diformate and formic acid, which showed approximately 66% degradation within the 10-day window, thereby demonstrating ready biodegradability.
Studies for environmental fate are also available for the read-across substances formic acid, propylidynetrimethanol (trimethylolpropane, TMP) and pentaerythritol. These studies indicate that reaction mass of 2,2-bis(formyloxymethyl)propane-1,3-diyl diformate and formic acid is likely to be hydrolytically stable and readily biodegradable. No further investigation of adsorption/desorption is considered necessary due to the low experimentally derived log Kow (-0.6) of the substance.
Additional information
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.
