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.

Additional information

The substance Fatty acids, C12-18, even numbered, 3-methylbutyl esters (CAS 1314763-50-2) is not expected to be present in the atmosphere or to 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 negible according to the estimated half-lifes 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.
