Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
phototransformation in water
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
disregarded due to major methodological deficiencies
Study period:
1998
Reliability:
4 (not assignable)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
documentation insufficient for assessment
Study type:
direct photolysis
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
GLP compliance:
no
Analytical method:
high-performance liquid chromatography
Light source:
other: Rayonet RPR-208 merry-go-round photoreactor
Quantum yield (for direct photolysis):
1.22

Result reported in the publication: logY = 0.085

Conclusions:
In a test on photodegradation in aqueous solution, the quantum yield was determined to logY = 0.085. As no degradation half-life in the environment was derived, the study is not useful for the exposure assessment and is therefore disregarded.
Endpoint:
phototransformation in water
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
disregarded due to major methodological deficiencies
Study period:
1996
Reliability:
4 (not assignable)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
documentation insufficient for assessment
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
GLP compliance:
no
Specific details on test material used for the study:
Name in the publication: p-An-Cl
obtained from Aldrich (highest purity available)
Rate constant (for indirect photolysis):
760 other: /min
Conclusions:
In a test on photodegradation with TiO2 as catalyst, a first-order rate constant of 760/min was determined.
As no degradation half-life in the environment was derived, the study is not useful for the exposure
assessment and is therefore disregarded.

Description of key information

In a test on photodegradation in aqueous solution, the quantum yield was determined to logY = 0.085.

In a further test on photodegradation with TiO2 as catalyst, a first-order rate constant of 760/min was determined.

As no degradation half-life in the environment was derived, both studies are not useful for the exposure assessment and are therefore disregarded.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
