Description of key information

After evaporation or exposure to the air, the substances will be rapidly degraded by photochemical processes.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Half-life in air:
11.33 h

Additional information

The half-life for the reaction of OH radicals with the test substance is calculated as 11.33 hours for Dodecyl methacrylate assuming a 24h-day. Thus, after evaporation or exposure to the air, the substance will be rapidly degraded by photochemical processes.
