Registration Dossier
Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Partitioning of substances into the different environmental compartments depends mainly on their physico-chemical properties. All starting materials are readily biodegradable. Due to the size and complexity (being triesters) the test substance can only be considered inherently biodegradable. However, this indicates that neither the test substance nor the metabolites will be persistent in the environment. Similarly since all substances are not likely to be present in the atmosphere due to their low vapor pressure (<1 Pa), indirect photolysis is not to be expected. Abiotic hydrolysis is not relevant, since the fatty acids are readily biodegradable and the sucrose esters are not susceptible to abiotic hydrolysis.
Due to log Pow and log KOC values > 3 the sucrose esters will mainly distribute into soil and sediment. Based on the rapid environmental biodegradation and metabolism via enzymatic hydrolysis, relevant uptake and bioaccumulation in aquatic organisms is not expected. Enzymatic breakdown will initially lead to the free fatty acid and the sugar. From literature it is well known, that these hydrolysis products will be metabolized and excreted in fish effectively (for detailed information please see chapter 5.3 of the technical dossier)
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.
