Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

No tests related to this part are available for Direct Red 16 but based on the studies available for similar substances it could be concluded that all the dyes are not hydrolysable, not biodegradable and does not bioaccumulate based on experimental result of Kow value.

Release to air, with an estimated vapour pressure of < 10 E-6 Pa at 25 deg C indicates that Direct Red 16 will not exist if not in dust particles in the atmosphere.

In vapour-phase similar substances will be degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 2.73 hours;degradation in sunlight also occurs.

If released to soil

is expected to have low potential for adsorption based on the partition coefficient log Kow of -1.5082.
