Environmental:
Will photolyze on the surface of soil and biodegrade. Should adsorb
moderately to soil at low pHs. Will have moderate mobility in soil.
Volatilization from dry and moist soil will be minimal. If released
to water, will partially dissociate at neutral or basic pHs. Will
adsorb moderately to sediment and particulates at acid pHs. Will
photolyze in surface water and biodegrade. Not expected to
bioconcentrate in aquatic organisms. Due to low vapor pressure,
should not occur as a vapor in the atmosphere and will
gravitationally settle from the air.
Physical:
Biodegradation by microorganisms, half-life in soil: 7 days.
Other:
No information available.
