Additional information

Glycerides, tall-oil mono-, di-, and tri- (CAS 97722-02-6) is considered as readily biodegradable according to OECD criteria. This assumption is based on results of a study on the ready biodegradability conducted according to OECD Guideline 301 F. Due to the ready biodegradability in water a rapid degradation of the substance in aquatic and terrestrial environments is expected. Thus, in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, column 2, 9.2.1.2. - 9.2.1.4., further simulation tests for water and sediment or soil biodegradation are not necessary.
