Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Additional information
After 28 days, no biodegradation of BPS was reported in a OECD Guideline 301 C test and it did not pass a Japanese MITI ready biodegradability test (0% after 4 weeks).1 2 4
In a Chen et al. study, BPS aerobic degradation was not detected after 2 weeks.3
No data are available for 2,4'-sulfonyldiphenol CAS 5397-34-2.
No data are also available onbenzenesulfonic acid, 4-hydroxy-, sodium salt (1:1), CAS 825-90-1.
From non-standard tests on hydroxybenzenesulphonic acid, it seems likely that hydroxybenzenesulphonic acid is not readily biodegradable.5
On the other hand, the studies with salts of aromatic sulphonic acids called hydrotropes provide a valid read-across.
7 studies on hydrotropes support a conclusion of ready biodegradability.6
A conclusion on DCB 58% can be drawn based on the main component BPS and the similar substances hydrotropes, therefore the intermediate is considered as not readily biodegradable.
