Registration Dossier
Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
In contact with water the substance might hydrolyse rapidly, especially under alkaline conditions. Under neutral and acidic conditions, the substance hydrolyses slowly.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Hydrolysis was investigated in a GLP-test according to OECD guideline 111. At a temperature of 50°C and after 120 hours of test duration the substance was totally hydrolysed at pH 9 while at pH 7 and pH 4 hydrolysis also occurs but much slower than under alkaline conditions. Hence, the substance is assumed to be hydrolytically instable especially under alkaline conditions. The possible products of hydrolysis are adipic acid (CAS 124-04-9) and 2,2' oxybisethanol (CAS 111-46-6) which are both supposed to be hydrolytically stable due to their lack of labile functional groups. Furthermore, both substances are readily biodegradable, not bioaccumulative and consist a moderate to low toxicity to aquatic 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.
