Key value for chemical safety assessment

Hydrolysis testing is not required as the substance is readily biodegradable. Alcohols are in any case generally resistant to hydrolysis under normal environmental conditions. In the absence of biodegradation, the half life has been estimated at between 1 -36 years for hydrolytic degradation.
