Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Testing of aluminium tri-sec-butylate for biodegradation is technically not feasible as the substance immediately dissociates to Al3+ species and 2-butanol upon contact with water or moisture. 2-Butanol is known to be readily biodegradable as demonstrated by the supportive study with a BOD5/COD ration of 0.86. Thus, the organic moiety of the test substance is considered readily biodegradable. Aluminium cations, being the inorganic moiety, cannot be biodegraded as the concept of biodegradability is only applicable to organic substances. Testing for biodegradation in sediment or soil are not required as the organic moiety is readily biodegradable.
For explanation for using surrogate data in a weight of evidence approach see section 13 IUCLID.
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.
