Description of key information

Additional information

The distribution in a sewage treatment plant (STP) has been estimated using the SimpleTreat model (implemented in EUSES 2.1.2/Chesar 3.7), see table below. Due to the moderately rapid hydrolysis of the registered substance, the distribution calculation is done for both the parent substance and the hydrolysis products, (3-thiocyanatopropyl)silanetriol and ethanol (CAS 64-17-5; EC No. 200-578-6).

Triethoxy(3-thiocyanatopropyl)silane (CAS 34708-08-2; EC No. 252-161 -3) is not expected to undergo any significant biodegradation and is predicted to have low Henry’s Law constant and low log Kow/log Koc. Therefore, water is the main compartment to which it is expected to partition in a sewage treatment plant.

 

(3-Thiocyanatopropyl)silanetriol is predicted to have very low Henry's Law constant, low log Kow/log Koc. Therefore, water is the main compartment to which it is expected to partition in a sewage treatment plant.
