Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

10-day-window: day 3 -13 
degradation at the end of 10-day-window: 73 %
degradation at the end of the test: 89%
pass level: 60% at the end of 10-d-window

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Biodegradation in water:
readily biodegradable

Additional information

The test item was tested using a concentration of nominally 20 mg organic carbon/L (corresponding to 29.7 mg test item/L) in test medium following OECD 301 Band EU-Method C4 -C.

Aniline was chosen as reference item. Activated sludge was used as inoculum (concentration in the test 25.9 mg dry matter/L) . The test was left running for 28 days. All validity criteria were met. Degradation of the reference item was 82 % after six days. The following data could be determined for the test item:

10-day-window: day 3 -13

degradation at the end of 10-day-window: 73 %

degradation at the end of the test: 89%

pass level: 60% at the end of 10-d-window
