Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Hydrolysis is one of the most common reactions controlling abiotic degradation and is therefore one of the main degradation paths of substances in the environment. The testing of the substance for hydrolysis is relevant to its persistence. 
Hydrolysis as a function of pH of the test substance was studied. The procedure was performed according to the Method C.7 - Degradation - Abiotic Degradation: Hydrolysis as a Function of pH, Council Regulation (EC) No 440/2008. Published in OJ No L 142/518 May 2008.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Half-life for hydrolysis:
1 yr
at the temperature of:
25 °C

Additional information

The preliminary test (at pH= 4.04, 7.05 and 9.01) shown that less than 10 % of hydrolysis was observed after 5 days. Therefore the test substance is considered hydrolytically stable and the half-life time of hydrolysis can be expected greater than one year at 25°C. No additional testing is required.
