Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Diphosphoric acid, compound with 1,3,5-triamine (1:2) is not stable in the environment. The substance will dissociate in aqueous environments forming melamine and pyrophosphate ions, respectively. The pyrophosphate ions will ultimately be hydrolysed to orthophosphates. Orthophosphates and melamine ions are stable to hydrolysis since they do not contain any chemical groups subject to hydrolysis. Thus abiotic degradation is no relevant degradation pathway for both dissociation products. Biodegradation is only relevant for the organic component melamine. However, an available test on the ready biodegradability of melamine observed no biodegradation under test conditions but rapid degradation by adapted activated sludge was demonstrated for melamine.
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). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
