Description of key information

Information on simulation testing of the ultimate biodegradation of the test substance in surface water or sediment are not available. However, the test substance has been shown to be readily biodegradable within the 10-window.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Further information on simulation testing of the ultimate biodegradation of the test substance in surface water or sediment are not available. However, the test substance has been shown to be readily biodegradable within the 10-window. Hence, persistency of the substance in surface water or sediment is not expected. Therefore data of a simulation test on degradation in surface water or sediment is not required according to the Reach regulation Annex IX section 9.2..
