Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Stability of the substance in the environment:

In Annex VIII column 2 of the REACH Regulation, it is stated, that a study on the "Hydrolysis as function of pH" does not need to be conducted if the “substance is readily biodegradable". It can be concluded that a study on the hydrolysis as a function of pH is not required based on the rapid biodegradability of the substance in the environment

 

Biodegradation of the substance:

Two reliable biodegradation studies are available and both demonstrate biodegradability. The key study by Kronenberger et al (2008) determined that the test substance is readily biodegradable and meets the 10-day window criterion.

 

Transport and distribution of the substance: 

Waiver. In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annexes VIII, the adsorption / desorption study (required in section 9.3.1) do not need to be conducted if, based on the physico-chemical properties the substance can be expected to have a low potential for adsorption (e.g. the substance has a low octanol-water partition coefficient). The partition coefficient of the substance was determined in a reliable study (Evonik, 2015) where the Log Kow is -0.73. Therefore, the substance is considered to have low potential for absorption and no further testing is required.
