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

The main abiotic pathway for degradation of the target compound (E)-1-(2-chloro-1,3-thiazol-5-ylmethyl)-3-methyl-2-nitroguanidine is photodegradation in soil with a half-life of 8.2 days, while hydrolysis is no relevant degradation process of the test substance and (at 12 °C DT50 = > 1 year at pH 4, pH 7 and pH 9).

A study on the ready biodegradability of the substance is not available. Biodegradation of the substance was investigated in a simulation study with different water/sediment systems. The substance was rapidly transferred from water to sediment, half-lives of the target compound at 20 °C ranged from 48 – 65 days (102 – 138 days, recalculated to 12 °C) in the water/sediment systems. After an incubation period of 100 days 14CO2 accounted for <5% of the initially applied radioactivity.

In a simulation study on the biodegradation of the test compound in water the DT50 was determined to be > 1 year at 20.5 °C.

Three different simulation studies investigating the degradation in a total of ten soil types (sand, loamy sand, sandy loam, loam, silt loam and clay loam). The DT50 values in different soils ranged from 9.7 to 1328 days (32.9 - 2819 days, recalculated to 12 °C) with 9.4 – 29.3% mineralisation after 120 to 379 days.

However, the log Koc value of 2.54 indicates a low potential of the substance for adsorption to soil and sediment particles.

The substance is soluble in water (WS: 0.327 g/L at 20 °C, OECD 105); volatilization from the water phase is not indicated by the Henry's Law Constant of 2.9 Pa m³/mol. Because of the low log Kow (<= 3) the substance is expected to exhibit a low potential for bioaccumulation.
