Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Hydrolysis as a Function of pH.

The estimated half-life at 25 ºC at pH 7 and pH 9 is > 1 year. At pH 4, although a decrease in concentration over time was observed, significant sample to sample variance prevented accurate quantification of the rate. Based on literature reference to organotin compounds being chemically resistant to hydrolysis and the successful validation of the analytical procedure, the loss of test material from solution has been attributed to adsorption onto the test vessel surfaces, working at a negligible nominal concentration of 4.0 x 10^-5 g/L, not hydrolysis.

Phototransformation data

None of the available data could be considered reliable enough to address the relevant end points. Phototransformation in air data submitted is from handbook data with no information on methods and phototransformation in soil data is from the EPIWIN estimation method which has not been validated for substances containing a metal.

Biodegradation

ZK 24.942 attained 2 % biodegradation within 28 days and therefore may not be termed as readily biodegradable. ZK 24.942 was not found to be inhibitory to activated sewage sludge bacteria under the conditions of this test.

Bioaccumulation

Current versions of EPIWIN have not been validated for estimating endpoints that contain metals in their molecular structure; therefore, estimated values derived from the EPIWIN models should be used with caution. This is the case with Bioaccumulation: aquatic / sediment, IUC4#3/Ch.3.7.

Transport and Distribution

All of the endpoints in this section have been completed with EPIWIN calculations. These are not currently validated for substances containing metals.
