Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 and 20 mg/L of the test substance were not inhibitory to activated sludge microorganisms in the toxicity control of the ready biodegradation test.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- EC10 or NOEC for microorganisms:
- 20 mg/L
Additional information
The toxicity of the test item bis(4-tert-butylcyclohexyl) peroxydicarbonate was assessed in a five day bacterial inhibition assay using a design similar to the closed bottle test (OECD 301D). The test substance (purity: 96.1 %) was used at nominal concentrations of 10 mg/L and 20 mg/L. Non-adapted activated sludge of a predominantly industrial sewage served as inoculum. The presence of the test substance had no significant effect on the degradation of sodium benzoate, indicating that it was not inhibitory. Therefore, the 5-d NOEC for toxicity to microorganisms is considered to be 20 mg/L.
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.
