Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Additional information
The substance Fatty acids, C16-18 and C18-unsatd., ethyl esters (CAS 85049-36-1) is not expected to be present in the atmosphere or accumulate in natural waters. This assumption is based on the low vapour pressure and the low water solubility. However, if released to air a rapid photodegradation by reaction with hydroxyl radicals is expected, whereas abiotic degradation by hydrolysis is negligible according to the estimated half-lives of the main substance components. Under environmental conditions the substance is expected to be mainly eliminated by biodegradation. Thus, abiotic degradation by indirect photodegradation or hydrolysis is not relevant for the substance.
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.
