Results and discussion

% Degradation
Key result
Parameter:
% degradation (CO2 evolution)
Value:
ca. 6
Sampling time:
28 d

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Interpretation of results:
not readily biodegradable
Conclusions:
The test item attained 6% biodegradation after 28 days and therefore cannot be considered to be readily biodegradable under the strict terms and conditions of OECD Guideline No. 301B.
