Description of key information
Additional information
MPP has been tested and found to be not readily biodegradable. However MPP is not expected to bioaccumulate due to its low partition coefficient. The adsorption coefficient indicates that the notified chemical may be mobile in soils. MPP is used as an additive (fire retardant) in polymers and is largely expected to be trapped within the inert polymer matrix of polymer pellets or finished articles and in this form is not expected to leach or to be bioavailable. In landfill, the MPP is expected to be released from the polymer matrix over time and ultimately degrade to form water and oxides of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorous.
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.
