Description of key information

In OECD guideline studies on readily and inherent biodegradability degradation rates up to 4 % were determined within 28 days. The reference compound sodium benzoate showed 75 % degradation after 14 days (Mueller, 2001). Therefore the substance has to be classified as "not inherently biodegradable".
