Biodegradation in water and sediment: simulation tests

Currently viewing:

Administrative data

Endpoint:
biodegradation in water: simulation testing on ultimate degradation in surface water
Data waiving:
study technically not feasible
Justification for data waiving:
other:
Justification for type of information:
Tests in aqueous or moist media with ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate cannot be performed due to technical reasons based on the chemical properties of the monomer. In presence of moisture ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate polymerises within seconds (inherent property of ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate based instant glues).
