Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

25 °C

Additional information

At pH 9, pH 7 and pH 4 the substance is considered to be degradable abiotically over a period of time according to the EC-guideline utilised. Reactive blue consists of two main compounds. The overall sum of both compounds was determined.

Experimental studies on hydrolytic effects demonstrated that the substance does undergo some hydrolysis at environmentally relevant pH’s, with a half-life of 3, 379, and 34 days at pH 4, 7 and 9, respectively, at 25 °C, based on a pseudo first order rate constant as calculated from the Arrhenius equation.
