Results and discussion

Percent distribution in media

Other distribution results:
The potential environmental distribution of methacrylamide obtained from generic level III fugacity model under three  emission scenarios is shown in the table. 
The results show that if methacrylamide is released mainly into air, it mainly remains in the soil.  If it is released into water, it also mainly remains in the water. And if it is released mainly into soil, it mainly remains in the soil. Methacrylamide is predicted to partition mainly into soil and water and mainly to a small degree into sediment.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Using a valid modeling method, if methacrylamide is released mainly into air, it mainly remains in the soil. If it is released into water, it also mainly remains in the water. And if it is released into soil, it mainly remains in the soil. Methacrylamide is predicted to partition only to a small degree into sediment.
Executive summary:

Using a valid modeling method, if methacrylamide is released mainly into air, it mainly remains in the soil. If it is released into water, it also mainly remains in the water. And if it is released into soil, it mainly remains in the soil. Methacrylamide is predicted to partition only to a small degree into sediment.
