Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
There are two study reports on biodegradability available for 1,3 -Propanediol, 2,2 -dimethyl-, 1,3 -diacetate. The study according to OECD TG 301F revealed a biodegradation of the test substance of 77.4% at the end of the 28-day period (BASF 2019). The ThOD removal rate was less than 60% during the 10-day window. Thus, the substance could be regarded as rapidly biodegradable but failing the OECD criteria for readily biodegradable. In the second study according to OECD TG 301B the biodegradability of the test substance was 84% after 28 days and the 10 -day window criterion was met (BASF 2018). Taking into account the stringent testing conditions of the OECD 301 test series, the test substance is considered to be readily biodegradable according to OECD criteria based on the outcome of both study reports.

Additional information
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.
