Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

The volatilization half-lifes from a model river and a model lake have been calculated using the conditions specified in the following table (calculation program as noted above).

 

 

	River	Lake
Water depth         [m]	1	1
Wind velocity      [m/sec]	5	0.5
Current velocity  [m/sec]	1	0.05
Half-life                 [h]	2.159	145.7
Half-life                 [d]	0.09	6.07

 

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

Diisopropylnaphthalene distributed in water will volatilize into air in short periods of time.
