Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
The biodegradation rate of N,N,N’,N’-tetrakis(2-hydroxyethyl)hexanediamide was investigated in a study on ready biodegradability and a study on inherent biodegradability. In a DOC Die-away test according to OECD 301A (1981) 9% degradation could be observed in the testing period of 28 days. The substance was classified as not readily biodegradable.
A modified Zahn-Wellens-Test according to OECD 302A (1981) was conducted to determine the inherent biodegradation potential of N,N,N’,N’-tetrakis(2-hydroxyethyl)hexanediamide. The test duration was 28 days and a degradation rate of 84% was observed.
Since DOC removal of more than 70% (76% within 3 days, 84% within 28 days) was observed, the results indicate the ultimate biodegradation potential of the substance. Since no degradation potential was observed within the first four hours physical processes like adsorption to sludge material can be excluded.
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.
