Conclusions:
Using the KOWWIN v1.68 program (EPI Suite v4.11), the weigthted average partition coefficient of the test substance was calculated to be 6.61.
Executive summary:

The partition coefficient value for the test substance were estimated using the KOWWIN v1.68 program (EPI Suite v4.11). Since the test substance is a UVCB with similar constituents varying mainly in carbon chain lengths, the partition coefficient values were estimated for the individual components followed by the determination of an overall weighted-average value using the mole fractions of all the individual components. SMILES codes were used as the input parameter for the partition coefficient estimation for the individual constituents. The estimated weighted average partition coefficient value of the test substance was calculated to be 6.61 (US EPA, 2018), indicating that the test substance is not very soluble in water (US EPA, 2012). The estimates for all the constituents are reliable and accurate and within the applicability domain.
