Description of key information
Additional information
There are no data available for the ready biodegradability of Alcohols, lanolin, distn. residues (CAS No. 90622-40-5). In order to fulfil the standard information requirements set out in Annex VII, 9.2, in accordance with Annex XI, 1.5, of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 a read-across to the structurally related substance Alcohols, lanolin (CAS 8027-33-6) was conducted. This study was performed according to a standard guideline and GLP and is considered to be reliable. A biodegradation rate of 39% in 28 days was determined. Therefore, persistence of this substance in the environment cannot be excluded.
The degradation via abiotic hydrolysis is not considered to be a relevant degradation pathway in the environment since the substance is highly insoluble in water (< 0.1 mg/L). The adsorption potential for the main components of Alcohols, lanolin, distn. residues is high (log Koc > 5, KOCWIN v2.00). Hence, soil and sediment are expected to be the main targets for environmental distribution.
Furthermore, it can be concluded that the bioaccumulation potential of Alcohols, lanolin, distn. residues is negligible since the low water solubility (< 0.1 mg/L) and high adsorption potential (log Koc > 5) reduce the availability of the substance in water. Additionally, the components of the substance are expected to be metabolized if absorbed by organisms.
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.
