Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information
In accordance with REACH Regulation 1907/2006, Annex IX, Column 2, 9.2.1.3, soil simulation testing should be considered unless the substance is readily biodegradable. While the substance cannot be regarded as readily biodegradable there is evidence that ultimate degradation can occur. A value for the half-life of the substance in soil has been calculated using a Fugacity model according to Mackay, Level III using EPIWIN (v.4.10). Data on a sediment reworker, Chironomus riparius, are available and could be taken as an indicator that effects on soil organisms may be minimal and available data on a structural analogue to the substance, 1,2,4 -Benzenetricarboxylic acid, mixed decyl and octyl triesters, which does not produce acute or chronic toxicity to earthworms or plants at high concentrations in soil again suggest that effects on soil organisms may not be of concern should the substance be present in the soil.
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.
