Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
1) Key_Biodegradation in water: screening tests: The test substance showed 0% degradation after 4, 14 and 28 days of test duration and can therefore be considered to be "not readily biodegradable" (activated sludge, aerobic, EU Method C.4 -D)
2) Supporting_Biodegradation in water: screening tests_QSAR: BIOWIN v4.10 (EPIWIN software) by US-EPA (2012), overall prediction result: not readily biodegradable
Additional information
Biodegradation in water:
One experimental (key study, reliability 2) and one QSAR prediction (supporting study, reliability 2) are available for the substance 2,4,6 -triisopropyl-m-phenylene diisocyanate. The experimental study was conducted according to EU Method C.4 -D (Müller, 1997). No degradation (0 %) was observed after 4, 14 and 28 days. However, the substance was not found to be bacteriotoxic. .
In addition, a prediction for biodegradability was performed with the computer program BIOWIN v4.10 (EPIWIN software) by US-EPA (2012). As overall prediction result the substance is not readily biodegradable, neither under aerobic nor under anaerobic conditions.
Biodegradation in water and sediment:
No exposure to water and sediment is intended during the life cycle of the test substance. Indirect exposure to the environment is unlikely, which is also indicated by the manufacturing process. In accordance with REACH, Annex IX, Section 9.2.1, column 2, this endpoint can be waived.
Biodegradation in soil:
No exposure to soil is intended during the life cycle of the test substance. Indirect exposure to the environment is unlikely, which is also indicated by the manufacturing process. In accordance with REACH, Annex IX, Section 9.2.1.3, column 2, this endpoint can be waived.
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.
