- Conclusions:
- The Chemical Oxygen Demand of FAT 40069/A was determined to be 787.94 mg O2/g test material.
- Executive summary:
This study describes the experimental techniques and the results obtained in a COD test of FAT 40069/A. The study was performed in accordance with DIN 38409-H41-1.
The COD of FAT 40069/A is 787.94 mg O2/g test material. Taking the results of the respective BOD5 determination into account, the BOD5/COD quotient is 24 mg/g divided by 787.94 mg/g = 0.03. Therefore, no biodegradation is expected at all.

Description of key information
The test substance FAT 40069 was found to be not readily biodegradable.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Biodegradation in water:
- under test conditions no biodegradation observed
- Type of water:
- freshwater
Additional information
A study was performed to determine the biodegradation of FAT 40069/A. The experiment was conducted following a procedure equivalent to OECD guideline 303 A (confirmatory test). The biological elimination of FAT 40069/A is found to be 0 %.
Several other studies showed the following results:
COD of 787.94 mg O2/g test material.
BOD5 of 24 mg O2/g test material.
The relevant BOD5/COD quotient is <0.5, therefore the substance is not indicative of rapid degradation.
Taking all data into account, the test substance FAT 40069 is considered to be not biodegradable.
