Description of key information

Two data sets on biodegradation are available:
- A test on inherent biodegradability according to EN ISO 9888: the test substance was found to be inherent biodegradable.
- A QSAR calculation on the prediction of the ready biodegradability of DIPS: BIOWIN (v4.10)/EPIsuite: the test substance was predicted to be readily biodegradable

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Biodegradation in water:
readily biodegradable

Additional information

Two data sets on biodegradation are available:

- A test on inherent biodegradability according to EN ISO 9888: the test substance was found to be inherent biodegradable.

- A QSAR calculation on the prediction of the ready biodegradability of DIPS: BIOWIN (v4.10)/EPIsuite: the test substance was predicted to be readily biodegradable.

Therefore it is assumed that the test substance will also degrade in a test on ready biodegradability and will meet the requirements to be considered as "readily biodegradable"
