Description of key information
Based on a Weight of Evidence approach with data on constituents, it can be possible to consider that the substance CORIANDER OIL is readily biodegradable.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Biodegradation in water:
- readily biodegradable
Additional information
Based on typical composition, 98.33% of the substance is known. Constituents above 1%, represent 96.86% of the substance.
Regarding data on individual constituents, most of them are considered readily biodegradable (see table below):
