Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

In accordance with REACH Regulation 1907 /2006, Annex VIII, Column 2, screening tests for adsorption/desorption do not need to be conducted as the substance has a low potential for adsorption based on a log Kow of 0.33 and the substance degrades rapidly, being readily biodegradable.

Koc has been calculated using the EPA OPERA model. It is predicted that the test material has a Koc of 25.7 L/Kg, supporting the justification for waiving of testing.

According to the McCall classification scheme, this means that dimethyl succinate is very highly mobile (0 < Koc < 50) on soil.
