Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Biodegradation in water and sediment: simulation tests
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
Description of key information
Biodegradation in water: these fibers are poorly soluble. If any dissolution occurs, the ions released by the substance are ions that naturally occur in pure water and therefore, the aquatic toxicity is unlikely to occur. Following annex VII column 2, 9.2.1.1 and annex IX column 2 9.2.1.2 the substance is poorly soluble, so not necessary to test it, considered as not degradable in water.
Degradation in sediment: this substance has a low adsorption potential to sediment so the test proposed in annex IX 9.2.1.4 is not adequate as there is not any organic carbon.
Key value for chemical safety assessment

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.
