Description of key information

Biodegradation in water: screening tests

There is no data available for this substance. However, key data is available for the structural analogue Hydrocarbons, C6-C7, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics, <5% n-hexane and is presented in the dossier. The data is read across to this substance based on analogue read across and a discussion and report on the read across strategy is provided as an attachment in IUCLID Section 13. Based on this data, this substance is considered readily biodegradable.

 

Biodegradation in water and sediment: simulation tests

This substance is considered to be readily biodegradable. Therefore, in accordance with REACH Annex IX column 2 exemption, the simulation testing in water and sediment does not need to be conducted.

 

Biodegradation in soil

This substance is considered to be readily biodegradable. Therefore, in accordance with REACH Annex IX column 2 exemption, simulation testing on ultimate degradation in soil does not need to be conducted.
