Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Biodegradation data is not available for EC 249-109-7, but an OECD 301D study is available for an analogous substance and suitable for read across. Based on the results from this study, EC 249-109-7 is not expected to be biodegradable. 

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Biodegradation in water:
under test conditions no biodegradation observed

Additional information

The biological oxygen demand was <5% of the chemical oxygen demand in both test concentrations at all sampling dates.

Sodium acetate in the inhibition test (medium contained test substance as well as reference substance) was degraded by 80% at day 27 which indicates that the test concentration did not have inhibitory effects on the inoculum.
