Description of key information
The test item dibutyl peroxydicarbonat is not readily biodegradable under the conditions of the CO2 evolution test according to OECD 301B. Due to the known tendency of dibutyl peroxydicarbonate to fast hydrolysis a modified pre-test based on OECD-Guideline 111, European Commission Council Regulation (EC) No 440/2008, Annex, Part C, method C.7, and US EPA OCSPP 835.2120 was performed. The measured half-life time of the test item without pH adjustment was 66.6 min at 22 °C. The hydrolysis process is a simple conversion from the unhydrolysed test item to one individual hydrolysis product. n-Butanol could be identified as the main hydrolysis product.
Dibutyl peroxydicarbonate has an EPISuite estimated log Pow of 3.19, indicating no potential for bioaccumulation.
The adsorption/desorption coefficient was estimated to be approximately 25.44 L/kg using the QSAR model KOCWIN v2.00. Therefore, dibutyl peroxydicarbonate shows a low adsorption potential to solid phases in soil and sediment in aquatic ecosystems.
Additional information
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.
