Description of key information

In contact with water the substance will hydrolyse slowly (EPIWIN calculation).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Half-life for hydrolysis:
2.4 yr
at the temperature of:
25 °C

Additional information

In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VIII, the test on hydrolysis (required in section 9.2.2) was waived, as the substance is readily biodegradable.

Hydrolysis of allyl methacrylate is not expected under relevant environmental conditions. The substance is expected to be stable at neutral and acidic conditions. Hydrolysis is expected under alkaline conditions. A half life of >2.4 yr was calculated for allyl methacrylate at a pH of 8 and 25 °C (SRC HYDROWIN v2.00).
