Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

Based on miscibility with water, low vapor pressure and  low estimated log Pow, expected to partition to water.

Based on water solubility, expected to undergo primary biodegradation in aerobic surface waters and complete biodegradaton in anaerobic environments at moderate rates with half-lives of 1-3 weeks.

Expected to reside primarily in aquatic environments in which it has a relatively short half-life due to bio- degradation.
