ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
CHEMICAL FATE Movement & Partitioning No bioconcentration is expected because of the relatively high molecular weight (MW greater than 1000). In the terrestrial environment, material is expected to remain in the soil. In the aquatic
Environmental hazards
materials with a specific gravity > 1 will sink and remain in the sediment, while those with a specific gravity <= 1 are expected to float. Persistence and Degradability This water-insoluble polymeric solid is expected to be inert in the environment. Surface photodegradation is expected with exposure to sunlight. No appreciable biodegradation is expected. ECOTOXICITY Not expected to be acutely toxic, but material in pellet or bead form may mechanically cause adverse effects if ingested by waterfowl or aquatic life. 13.
