  • Environmental Bioconcentration: An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated for N,N-dimethylacetamide(SRC), using a log Kow of -0.77(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 9(SRC), determined from a log Kow of -0.77(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that N,N-dimethylacetamide is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of N,N-dimethylacetamide from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given a Henry's Law constant of 1.31X10-8 atm-cu m/mole(4). The potential for volatilization of N,N-dimethylacetamide from dry soil surfaces may exist(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 2 mm Hg(5). N,N-Dimethylacetamide is expected to be biodegradable in soil based on aqueous screening tests(6,7). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 9(SRC), determined from a log Kow of -0.77(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that N,N- dimethylacetamide is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected(3) based upon a Henry's Law constant of 1.31X10-8 atm-cu m/mole(4). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated BCF of 3(SRC), from its log Kow(2) and a regression-derived equation(6), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). N,N-Dimethylacetamide, present at 100 mg/l reached 28% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/l and the Japanese MITI test(7). N,N-Dimethylacetamide, present at 30 mg/l, reached 80% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 100 mg/l and the Japanese MITI test(7). In other studies, N,N-dimethylacetamide, present at 400 mg/l, reached 96% of its theoretical TOC in 5 days using industrial activated sludge(8). These results from laboratory studies suggest that N,N-dimethylacetamide will biodegrade in the aquatic environment(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), N,N-dimethylacetamide, which has a vapor pressure of 2 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere(SRC). Vapor-phase N,N-dimethylacetamide is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC); the half-life for this reaction in air is 28 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 1.36X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(3).

Questions this page answers

This official record identifies the substance as prohibited for cosmetic use in the stated market scope. Do not rely on a formulation containing this identity until the cited source, effective date and exact substance match have been verified.

A prohibition entry may contain no separate condition text because the regulatory outcome is the prohibition itself. Regional annex coverage does not replace member-state implementation dates, notifications or national deviations.

The record cites ASEAN Annex II, reference 747, source version 2026-1. Open the official source.

No. CAS helps resolve identity, but jurisdictions can classify the same substance differently and can apply different product scopes, limits, warnings and transition dates.
