Registration Dossier
Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Evaporation of Fatty acids, C16-18 and C18-unsatd., hexaesters with dipentaerythritol (CAS 68604-38-6) to the atmosphere is not expected due to the low vapour pressure of the substance components. Thus indirect photodegradation is no relevant pathways for the substance since the substance is not likely to be present in the atmosphere. Calculated values on photodegradation indicate that the substance will be rapidly degraded with half-lives ranging from 51.08 minutes up to 2.87 h for the substance components. Due to the low water solubility (<0.15 mg/L; Frischmann, 2012) abiotic hydrolysis is considered as not relevant for the substance. This is supported by calculated half-lives > 1 year for the substance components.
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.
