- Type:
- Koc
- Remarks:
- (given in L/kg)
- Value:
- 38.02
- Type:
- log Koc
- Remarks:
- (unitless)
- Value:
- 1.58
Any other information on results incl. tables
- Defined endpoint: Soil sorption coefficient Koc
- Unambiguous algorithm: logKoc = 0.60 logKow + 0.32
- Applicability of the domain: The formula is valid for all organic acids with a log Pow between -0.5 and 4.0.
- Statistical characteristics: n = 23, r² = 0.75, s.e. = 0.34
- Adequacy of prediction: The log Pow of 6 -HNA is 2.1, which falls within the applicability of the domain. Therefore, a sufficient adequacy of the model for predicting the soil sorption coefficient is given
Validity of the model:
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- not applicable
- Conclusions:
- The adsorption coefficient (Koc) of 6-HNA was calculated as 38.02 L/kg, which corresponds to a log Koc of 1.58.
