Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The test substance is not readily biodegradable, although the test substance did not prove to be readily biodegradable, its mineralization half-life of less than 28 days (Method 1) demonstrated that the material is subject to biodegradation, and can therefore be considered inherently biodegradable (ECHA guidance R7b).

Additional information

Evidence of ready biodegradability in a Carbon Dioxide Evolution Test is 60% TCO2 within a 28-day test period.  In addition, the pass level must be reached within 10 days of achieving 10%  TCO2 . The final mean percent biodegradation for the test substance for Method 1 was 56.8% and for Method 2 was 21.2%. The test substance may not be considered readily biodegradable since the pass level of 60% TCO2 was not achieved within 10 days of achieving 10% TCO2. Although the test substance did not prove to be readily biodegradable, its mineralization half-life of less than 28 days (Method 1) demonstrated that the material is subject to biodegradation.
