Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Degradation rates for gas-phase reactions of the test substance with hydroxyl radicals and ozone in the atmosphere were calculated using the AOPWIN program, v1.92. (EPISuite v4.11).

The calculated degradation rate of the test substance with hydroxyl radicals (OH) is 57.8392 E-12 cm3/molecules/s and with ozone 0.875000 E-17 cm3/molecule/sec. The atmospheric degradation half-life of the test substance due to reactions with OH radicals is 2.219 hours (24 hour day). The atmospheric degradation half-life of the test substance due to reactions with ozone is 31.433 hours (24 hour day).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Half-life in air:
2.219 h
Degradation rate constant with OH radicals:
0 cm³ molecule-1 s-1

QSAR-disclaimer

In Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, it is laid down that information on intrinsic properties of substances may be generated by means other than tests, provided that the conditions set out in Annex XI (of the same Regulation) are met. Furthermore according to Article 25 of the same Regulation testing on vertebrate animals shall be undertaken only as a last resort.

According to Annex XI of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (Q)SAR results can be used if (1) the scientific validity of the (Q)SAR model has been established, (2) the substance falls within the applicability domain of the (Q)SAR model, (3) the results are adequate for the purpose of classification and labeling and/or risk assessment and (4) adequate and reliable documentation of the applied method is provided.

For the assessment of 1-(vinyloxy)dodecane (Q)SAR results were used for aerobic biodegradability in water.The criteria listed in Annex XI of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 are considered to be adequately fulfilled and therefore the endpoint(s) sufficiently covered and suitable for risk assessment.

Therefore, further experimental studies on aerobic biodegradability in water are not provided.
