Endpoint:
hydrolysis
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is readily biodegradable

Description of key information

Hydrolysis is not relevant due to ready biodegradability.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

No experimental studies are available, in which hydrolysis of Fatty acids, C16, C18 and C18-unsaturated, C12-15 alcohol (linear and branched), esters was assessed. However, since the substance is readily biodegradable and highly insoluble in water, testing is not required in accordance with Annex VIII, column 2, 9.2.2.1 of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006.
