General Comments : The data indicate that 33% of the material degrades in the 10-day time<br />

window in which 70% degradation must occur in order for the chemical<br />

to be classified as readily biodegradable. 70% biodegradation did not<br />

occur until day 34. The results of this test indicate, however, that the test<br />

material is unlikely to persist in the environment, but may not be fully<br />

removed during wastewater treatment.<br />
