Description of key information
Additional information
The substance BPA 2PO is biodegradable with approximately 60% degradation over 28 days and no plateau reached. The substance is considered 'ultimately biodegradable' and the Bisphenol A (BPA) core appears to be metabolising.
This is contrary to data found on BPA that suggests it is non-biodegradable. It therefore appears that the PO attached to the BPA allows metabolic degradation. This observation is also confirmed by reports of complete biodegradation of BPA with 5 moles PO.
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.
