Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
No significant volatilization from aqueous solution of sodium perborate as well as its hydrolysis products is to be expected.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Studies on the environmental distribution behaviour of sodium perborate are not available. From the physico-chemical properties and the use pattern of sodium perborate it is obvious that the by far most important target compartment for the anthropogenic releases is the hydrosphere. From the ionic structure of the substances a significant volatilization from water is not to be expected. Due to the intended decomposition during use and the degradation in the aquatic environment an assessment of the adsorption behaviour should be derived from the data on the degradation products.
For hydrogen peroxide, several experimentally determined values for the Henry´s Law constant are available (ECB 2003). The value of H = 7.5.10-4 Pa.m3/mol (logH = -3.13) at 20°C was chosen to be used in the assessment. This value indicates, that volatilisation of hydrogen peroxide from water is very low.
For boric acid, the Henry´s Law constant was considered to be negligible (vapour pressure 9.9 x 10-6 Pa at 25°C) (ECB 2009).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
