Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

The test substance Esterification products of fatty acids, C18 (unsaturated) alkyl and adipic acid with pentaerythritol is a UVCB with a low water solubility. Based on the result from a biodegradation study according to OECD 301B the substance is readily biodegradable (74 - 78% after 28 d). Based on this result, Esterification products of fatty acids, C18 (unsaturated) alkyl and adipic acid with pentaerythritol will be significantly degraded in sewage treatment plants. Due to ready biodegradability, abiotic degradation via hydrolysis is considered as not relevant for the substance. Moreover, the substance is not volatile based on the results in the aerated OECD 301B testing and thus evaporation to the air and subsequent transport through the atmosphere to other environmental compartments is not likely.
