Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

In accordance with column 2 of REACH annex IX, further aquatic and sediment degradation testing (required in section 9.2.1.2 and 9.2.1.4) does not need to be conducted as the chemical safety assessment does not indicate a need for further investigation. The substance has a very low log Koc value, has low adsorptive properties and thus it is considered not to be bioaccumulative. In addition, direct and indirect exposure of the sediment compartment is unlikely. Furthermore,  in accordance with column 2 of REACH annex IX, further simulation studies on biodegradation in surface water and sediment (required in section 9.2.1.2 and 9.1.4) are not needed since the substance is readily biodegradable.
