Results and discussion

% Degradation
Parameter:
% degradation (CO2 evolution)
Value:
< 10
Sampling time:
28 d
Details on results:
The mean biodegradation after 28 days was 2%.

Any other information on results incl. tables

The mean biodegradation after 28 days was 2%.

The test item is classified as not readily biodegradable in the 10 -d-window and after 28 days.

In the inoculum control the total CO2 production was 32.2 mg CO2/L after 28 days (validity criterion: <40 mg CO2/L after 28days).

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Interpretation of results:
not inherently biodegradable
Conclusions:
The test item is classified as not readily biodegradable in the 10 -d-window and after 28 days.
