* % ranges have been taken from the SIP of the substance.
Regarding these ranges, the unknown part of the NCS composition remains high. According to the SIP of the substance, unknown constituents represent 81 to 95%.
With a constituents approach, it is therefore not possible to consider that the substance is readily biodegradable, because of a lack of data at the whole substance scale.
By default, the substance is considered not readily biodegradable.
