Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
NOP is hydrolytically stable.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The hydrolytic stability of NOP (CAS 2687 -94 -7) was studied in two tests.
One study (GAF Corp., 1991; report no. SC900133) was performed according to EPA Guideline Subdivision N 161-1 (Hydrolysis). The test was performed using radiolabelled test material. After 30 d, the recovery was 99.7 to 100.6% of applied radioactivity at pH 5, 7, and 9. This study showed that the substance is stable in abiotic aquatic environments. At pH 7, the DT50 was concluded to be 1000 d.
The other study was run according to OECD 111 (BASF AG, 1992; report no.91.19.9). The hydrolytic stability was teted at pH 4, 7, and 9 as well as in unbuffered test medium at pH 6.55. The experiment was run for approximately 120 hours. The preliminary test showed that NOP is hydrolytically stable at pH 4 to 9 at 50 °C; therefore, no further testing is necessary.
According to Regulation (EC) 1907/2006, Annex VIII, Section 9.2.2.1, column 2, the study does not need to be conducted if the substance is readily biodegradable. NOP is readily biodegradable according to OECD criteria (OECD 301F: > 80% BOD/ThOD after 28 d; BASF AG, 1992; report no. 91/1784/26/1; see IUCLID Ch. 5.2.1).
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.
