Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
not applicable
Conclusions:
A half-life time t1/2=7.532 h (25°C) was estimated for the photodegradation of hydroxycitronellol in air by reaction with OH radicals.
Executive summary:

The photodegradation of hydroxycitronellol in air by reaction with OH radicals was calculated using EPIWIN v4.11, AOPWIN v1.92. Taking into account a OH radical concentration of 1.5 x 10E6 radicals/cm³ (12 -h day) and a reaction rate constant of 17.0414 x 10E-12 cm³/molecule x sec (at 25°C) a half-life t1/2=7.532 h (0.628 d) was estimated.
