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

Sodium 2 –butoxyethyl sulfate (CAS No. 67656 -24 -0) is characterized by a water solubility of > 2054 g/L, a low vapour pressure of < 0.001 Pa and a partition coefficient of < -2.7. Since the partition coefficient was below the trigger value of 3 the substance can be expected to have a low potential for adsorption. Based on these physicochemical properties the substance is not expected to evaporate into atmosphere or retain in the soil and sediment compartment. Therefore under environmental conditions the substance would mainly distribute into the water compartment. Furthermore, the substance is rapidly biodegradable and will therefore be quickly eliminated in sewage treatment plants and the environment in case of release. Due to rapid biodegradation of the substance, primary degradation via hydrolysis is not considered as a main degradation process.
