Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Value:
ca. 0.45
Calculation basis:
other: according to Lyman
Remarks on result:
other: No bioaccumulation of the substance is predicted.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The bioaccumulation potential is predicted from the 1-Octanol/water partition coefficient (logPow = -0.15) using the equation:
log BCF = 0.76 *logPow - 0.23
From the derived BCF no bioaccumulation of substance is predicted.
