Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Additional information
Abiotic degradation
3-Trimethoxysilylpropyl methacrylate hydrolyses rapidly (half-lives at 20°C of 1.87 h at pH 7, 0.018 at pH 4 and 0.068 at pH 9; see Section 4.1.1.1 of the CSR). A half-life of 0.6 days for reaction with hydroxyl radicals in air has been calculated for 3-trimethoxysilylpropyl methacrylate.
The hydrolysis products are 3-(trihydroxysilyl)propyl methacrylate and methanol. A half-life of 0.5 days for reaction with hydroxyl radicals in air has been calculated for 3-(trihydroxysilyl)propyl methacrylate.
Biotic degradation
Based on biodegradation in water studies, it is concluded that the substance is readily biodegradable but failing the 10-day window. No significant biodegradation of the silanol hydrolysis product, 3-(trihydroxysilyl)propyl methacrylate is expected.
The chemical safety assessment indicates that it is not necessary to obtain further information on biodegradation via simulation tests in water, sediment or soil.
Table. Degradation rates - summary
Degradationrate in water: | Hydrolysis half-life: 1.87 hours at pH 7 and 20°C for removal of parent (measured). Readily biodegradable but failing the 10-day window. Once the biodegradation of the alkoxy groups is taken into account there is evidence that the methacrylate side-chain is biodegrading to some extent. No significant biodegradation expected for the silanol hydrolysis product. |
Degradation rate in sediment: | Hydrolysis may occur (measured hydrolysis half-life in water 1.87 h at pH 7 and 20°C). No significant biodegradation expected for the silanol hydrolysis product. |
Degradation rate in soil: | Hydrolysis may occur (measured hydrolysis half-life in water 1.87 h at pH 7 and 20°C). No significant biodegradation expected for the silanol hydrolysis product. |
Degradation rate in air: | Half-life for reaction with hydroxyl radicals in air of the parent substance: 0.6 days (calculated)
Half-life for reaction with hydroxyl radicals in air of silanol hydrolysis product: 0.5 days (calculated). |
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
