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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
Partition coefficients
For metals, the transport and distribution over the different environmental compartments e.g. the water (dissolved fraction, fraction bound to suspended matter), soil (fraction bound or complexed to the soil particles, fraction in the soil pore water,...) is described and quantified by the partition coefficients (Kd values) between these different fractions.
For Germanium, Kd's between sediment and freshwater were determined for regional freshwater and estuarine waters. The Kd values are:
-for freshwater: >9796 L/kg based on 90P values for Ge in sediment and freshwater
-for estuarine waters: 452 L/kg based on 90P values also.
For soil, a general Kd value of 1000kg/l was derived from the literature (Sheppard et al 2009).
Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
