Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

methyl 5-nitrohydrogen.isophthalate is found to be biodegradable in water and sediment in approximately 360 h. This indicates that it is not persistent and therefore considered as biodegardable in water and sediment

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Half-life in freshwater:
360 h
at the temperature of:
20 °C
Half-life in freshwater sediment:
3 240 h
at the temperature of:
20 °C
