Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Additional information
In a modified Sturm test according OECD 301B the test substance bis-(4-tert-butylcyclohexyl)peroxydicarbonate could not be demonstrated to be readily biodegradable under the chosen test conditions. This does not mean that the substance does not degrade under environmentally relevant conditions. To further investigate degradability in freshwater a corresponding simulation test would be required. In view of the physicochemical properties of the substance (high adsorption coefficient) a testing proposal for a water-sediment degradation study (OECD 308) is submitted.
Since direct and indirect exposure of soil can be excluded (negligible vapour pressure, hence no deposition via air; mandatory incineration of sewage sludge, hence no emission to soil) testing of degradation in soil is not considered to be required.
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.
