Description of key information

log Pow = 10.6 at 55 °C, pH = 5.9

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Log Kow (Log Pow):
10.6
at the temperature of:
55 °C

Additional information

The partition coefficient of the substance 1,2,4 -benzenetricarboxylic acid (CAS 94279-36-4) was determined according to the OECD Guideline 117 and other guidelines. The calculated log Pow values for components 13.28 -16 .32 (KOWWIN v1.68) support the conclusion that the substance is highly lipophilic. It is believed that log Pow does not dependent significantly on the temperature, thus the result at 55 °C can be accepted for risk assessment.
