Description of key information
N,N-dibutylformamide is not readily biodegradable.
The substance was found to be inherently biodegradable.
Additional information
Data waiving according Regulation EC 1907/2006, Annex XI (1):
Based on experimental data, N,N-dibutylformamide is only poorly biodegradable (11% in 29 d, ISO 7827, part E, BASF AG, 1989). The substance proved to be inherently biodegradable (93% in 22 d, OECD 302B, BASF AG, 1989). Following the poor biodegradability of N, N-dibutylformamide under restrictive conditions, no biodegradation is expected in simulating testing in sediment, water and soil.
Data waiving according Regulation EC 1907/2006, Annex XI (3) AND a
ccording to Regulation (EC) 1907/2006 Annex IX 9.2.1.3 column 2 a study on biodegradation in sediment, water and soil does not need to be conducted if direct or indirect exposure of soil is unlikely. Since the substance is used under rigorously controlled conditions. Only minimum exposure is expected due to sampling procedures. Therefore, no direct and indirect exposure to sediment, water and soil is possible. Thus, an experimental investigation of biodegradation in sediment, water and soil (simulation testing) is not considered necessary. More details to exposure scenario can be found in the exposure assessment (PEC/PNEC < 1).
Therefore, no study on the biodegradation in sediment, water and soil is performed and submitted.
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.
