Additional information

Abiotic degradation is not a relevant pathway for 1,3-Propanediol, 2,2-dimethyl-, C5-9 carboxylates (CAS 85711-80-4). Since the substance is not likely to be present in the atmosphere based on the low vapour pressure (< 1 Pa at 20 °C), indirect photolysis is not to be expected. Abiotic hydrolysis is not relevant, since the substance is readily biodegradable and is expected to be eliminated through biodegradation in natural waters.
