The molecular weight of the test substance was calculated to be (73.803/100) x 399.99 + (25.300/100) x 368.04 + (0.132/100) x 396.09 = 344.6 g/mol.

- Using a vapour pressure of 1.5E-03 Pa = 1.5E-08 atm (at 20°C) determined during NOTOX project 499392, using a water solubility of 455 g/L = 1.32E03 mol/m3 supplied by the sponsor, the Henry’s law constant of the test substance was estimated to be <1.1E-11 atm.m3/mol.

- Using a critical micelle concentration of 0.81 g/L = 2.35 mol/m3 supplied by the sponsor, the Henry’s law constant of the test substance was estimated to be <6.4E-09 atm.m3/mol (corresponding to 6.4E-04 Pa m3/mol).

If the Henry’s law constant is 3.0E-07 atm.m3/mol, the test substance is less volatile than water and the concentration will increase when water evaporates. The test substance is considered essentially non-volatile.

Conclusions:
The estimated HLC based on solubility in water was calculated to be <1.1E-11 atm-m3/mol or 1.1E-06 Pa m3/moL and the the HLC based on critical micelle concentration was calculated to be <6.4E-09 atm-m3/mol or 6.4E-04 Pa m3/moL, respectively. Based on these calculated values, the test substance was considered to be essentially non-volatile
Executive summary:

The Henry’s law constant of the test substance, C12-16 ADBAC (99.2% active) was calculated based on the water solubility and the critical micelle concentration. The estimated HLC based on solubility in water was calculated to be <1.1E-11 atm-m3/mol or 1.1E-06 Pa m3/moL and the the HLC based on critical micelle concentration was calculated to be <6.4E-09 atm-m3/mol or 6.4E-04 Pa m3/moL, respectively. Based on these calculated values, the test substance was considered to be essentially non-volatile (Breckelmans, 2012).
