Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 simulation test conducted in accordance with OECD guideline 303A (and under GLP) was adapted to trap 14CO2 and volatiles
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The recovery of activity from the test system in the last weeks of the removal period was on average 51.9 +/- 3.5%. It was speculated that this may be due to the occurrence of a highly volatile metabolite not retained by the gas trap series used. The amount of activity in the wasted sludge, gas traps and effluent was relatively constant. The activity remaining in the effluent was 13.6 +/- 2.7% of the added activity, in the wasted sludge 4.7 +/- 1.2 % and in the gas traps 33.1 +/- 3.6%. No parent compound was detected in the effluent stream and the remaining radioactivity was related to three metabolites (TBA and 2 unknown compounds) and dissolved CO2. This means that most TBHP was removed due to primary biodegradation to TBA. The degree of mineralisation was 41.1 +/- 3.5%.
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.
