Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

A ready biodegradability study of SPS-100 was performed for 28 days using a method similar to MITI (I) (OECD 301C).  At the end of the test period (28 d) the average biodegradation of SPS-100 was 2%. Thus, the criterion for ready biodegradability (at least 60% biodegradation) was not met. The study is considered to be reliable with restrictions since a toxicity control was not included.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Biodegradation in water:
under test conditions no biodegradation observed

Additional information

A ready biodegradability study of SPS-100 was performed for 28 days using a method similar to MITI (I) (OECD 301C). The initial concentration of the test substance was 100 mg/L. At the end of the test period (28 d) the average biodegradation of SPS-100 was 2%. Thus, the criterion for ready biodegradability (at least 60% biodegradation) was not met. The study is considered to be reliable with restrictions since a toxicity control was not included.
