Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

Leachates accounted for less than 5% of applied dose. The soil extracts showed approximately 94% ametryn for sand, 68% for sandy loam, 69% for clay and 79% for loam.

 

Leaching of parent ametryn was demonstrated not to occur in any tested soil type and was not dependent on the percent organic matter or clay content of the soil.

 

An approximation of the desorption constants (Kd) for the Freundlich distribution of ametryn between an aqueous phase and soil was determined:

Sand: Kd = 195.8

Loam: Kd = 19.36

Clay: Kd = 855

Sandy loam: Kd = 19.53
