Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

No information concerning biodegradation of long-chain alkyl methacrylate esters (C12 – C22) in sediments and surface water are available. However, according to several GLP guideline studies the substances are readily biodegradable. Therefore, simulation studies on biodegradation in surface water and sediment are not provided.
