Description of key information

No simulation tests on the biodegradation of the test substance in water and sediments are deemed necessary.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

According to Regulation (EC) 1907 (2006) Annex IX column 2 of sections 9.2.1.2 and 9.2.1.4, a study on biodegradation simulation testing does not need to be conducted as the substance is considered to be readily biodegradable according to OECD criteria (for details see IUCLID Ch. 5.2.1).
