Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Tests on phototransformation in the air are not required to be performed under Annexes VII to X of REACH.
Photooxidation of tributyl phosphate was estimated using a computer model accepted by the US EPA. The Atmospheric Oxidation Program for Microsoft Windows (AOPWIN) is a programme for estimation of indirect photo-oxidation which estimates the rate constant for the atmospheric, gasphase reaction between photochemically produced hydroxyl radicals and organic chemicals and calculates atmospheric half-lives for organic compounds based upon average atmospheric concentrations of hydroxyl radicals and ozone. Therefore, this model is reliable, adequate and relevant to tributyl phosphate. Thus, a half life of 1.628 hours is estimated for reaction of tributyl phosphate with hydroxyl radicals in the atmosphere at 25oC [AOPWIN Program, v.1.92].
Overall QSARs estimated half-life for degradation of tributyl phosphate in air based upon AOPWIN Model is 3.257 hours.
Based on the data on photochemical degradation of tributyl phosphate in the air, it is considered to rapidly degrade in the atmosphere via photooxidation process.
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.
