Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Hydrolysis is a negligible removal process for Benzaldehyde, 2-hydroxy-5-dodecyl, oxime, branched (CAS 1233873-37-4) in the aquatic environment.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The EU Risk Assessment Report 2002 (p.54) states that hydrolysis is a negligible removal processes for the structurally similar substance nonylphenol in the aquatic environment. This assumption is based upon the stability of nonylphenol during storage and several biodegradation studies reviewed by the UK rapporteur on behalf of the European Union where no degradation was observed in the control experiments. The authors of these studies concluded that abiotic degradation was likely to be negligible (Corti et al., 1995; Trocmé et al., 1988; both cited in the EU Risk Assessment Report 2002). Based on the structural similarity this conclusion is also considered to be true for Benzaldehyde, 2-hydroxy-5-dodecyl, oxime, branched (CAS 1233837-37-4).
