Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Biodegradation in water
The biodegradation of n-Butyl vinyl ether was tested in a CO2 Test in seasled vessels (Headspace Test) according to OECD Test Guideline 310. The degree of biodegradation after an exposure period of 28 days was 83±1 % TIC/TOC in this test. The mean value of degree of biodegradation was calculated by the single values of five test assays at the end of exposure with a limit of confidence of 95 %. The required pass level of the ten day window for ready biodegradability was reached. Thus n-Butyl vinyl ether is considered as readily biodegradable
Phototransformation in air
Using EPISuite software SRC AOP v1.92 the phototransformation in air was calculated to be 2.758 h (half-life in air).
After evaporation or exposure to the air the substance will be rapidly degraded by photochemical processes.
Hydrolysis
According to Annex VII - Column 2 escape clause, the hydrolysis study does not need to be conducted if the substance is readily biodegradable. N-Butyl vinyl ether is considered as readily biodegradable. Consequently, no test on hydrolysis is performed.
Transport and distribution
The soil adsorption coefficient (Koc) was calculated using EPIsuite KOCWIN program. Using the molecular connectivity index (MCI) method the Koc was calculated to be 32.21 L/kg and log Koc to be 1.5080 respectively. Thus, adsorption to solid soil phase is not expected.
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.
