Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

After evaporation or exposure to the air, diisononyl adipate will be rapidly degraded by photochemical processes.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

No experimental studies investigating the phototransformation of Diisononyl adipate (DINA, CAS 33703-08-1) in air is available. QSAR calculations using AOPWIN v1.92 indicate, that DINA is susceptile to indirect photodegradation in air. The estimated half time for the reaction with OH-radicals is calculated to be 14.4 h (24h day; OH-concentration: 0.5E+06 OH/cm3). However, photodegradation is not considered to be an important environmental fate process since the substance is not expected to evaporate into the atmosphere due to the low vapor pressure of 0.000000002 hPa at 20 °C.
