Description of key information

Additional information

Based on its physico-chemical properties, the main environmental target compartments of Fatty acids, C18 unsaturated, trimers, hydrogenated are expected to be soil and sediment. However, due to its low water solubility, Fatty acids, C18 unsaturated, trimers, hydrogenated is expected to be removed in the primary settling tank or fat trap of sewage treatment plants. Significant release into surface waters is thus not expected, and exposure of sediment is thereby unlikely.
