Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Reference
Endpoint:
adsorption / desorption, other
Remarks:
adsorption
Type of information:
(Q)SAR
Adequacy of study:
weight of evidence
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
results derived from a valid (Q)SAR model and falling into its applicability domain, with adequate and reliable documentation / justification
Justification for type of information:
1. SOFTWARE
EPI Suite v4.11

2. MODEL (incl. version number)
KOCWIN v2.00

3. SMILES OR OTHER IDENTIFIERS USED AS INPUT FOR THE MODEL
See section 'Test Material'.

4. SCIENTIFIC VALIDITY OF THE (Q)SAR MODEL
See attached QMRF.

5. APPLICABILITY DOMAIN
See attached QPRF.

6. ADEQUACY OF THE RESULT
- The model is scientifically valid (see attached QMRF).
- See attached QPRF for reliability assessment.
- The model estimates the potential of adsorption to the soil phase of a substance. Screening information on the adsoprtion is required for substances manufactured or imported in quantities of 10 t/y or more. Depending on the results, further information may be required for substances manufactured or imported in quantities of 100 t/y or more. Column 2 of REACH Annex VIII provides exemptions for conducting the study. It does not need to be conducted if the substance has a low octanol water partition coefficient, or the the substance and its relevant degradation products decompose rapidly. According to column 2 of REACH Annex IX, testing is not required if the substance has a low octanol water partition coefficient, or the the substance and its relevant degradation products decompose rapidly.

Additional information

In Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, it is laid down that information on intrinsic properties of substances may be generated by means other than tests, provided that the conditions set out in Annex XI (of the same Regulation) are met. Furthermore according to Article 25 of the same Regulation testing on vertebrate animals shall be undertaken only as a last resort.

 According to Annex XI of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (Q)SAR results can be used if (1) the scientific validity of the (Q)SAR model has been established, (2) the substance falls within the applicability domain of the (Q)SAR model, (3) the results are adequate for the purpose of classification and labeling and/or risk assessment and (4) adequate and reliable documentation of the applied method is provided.

 For the assessment of CAS 111 -20 -6 (Q)SAR results were used for adsorption/desorption. The criteria listed in Annex XI of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 are considered to be adequately fulfilled and therefore the endpoint(s) sufficiently covered and suitable for risk assessment.

 Therefore, further experimental studies on adsorption/desorption are not provided.

As calculated using SRC PCKOCWIN v2.00, the Koc of sebacic acid is 268 (log Koc = 2.4) [BASF SE, 2010].
