Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The log Koc of 1.61 and the Koc of 41.3 were calculated for the uncharged molecule.

Description of key information

Waived:  Measured of adsorption/desorption is not required where low potential for adsorption is indicated from low value of log Kow.  A predicted value of log Koc = 1.61 is used for the chemical safety assessment.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Koc at 20 °C:
41.3

Additional information

In accordance with column 2 of REACH annex VIII, adsorption/desorption screening does not need to be conducted if, based on the low octanol water partition coefficient, the substance can be expected to have a low potential for adsorption. The 2-ethylhexanoate component of the tin bis(2 -ethylhexanoate) salt has log Kow = 2.64 for its un-ionized species occurring at pH < 2.8. The log D for species occurring at pH 7 is estimated to be approximately 0.6. The estimated organic carbon-normalized adsorption coefficient (log Koc) is 1.61 (Koc = 41.3).
