Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Any other information on results incl. tables

The organic carbon-normalised partition coefficient was estimated by considering the equation for the domain of predominantly-hydrophobic substances reported in the EU TGD (2003) and the experimentally determined Log Kow (1.48). HFC 125 satisfies the criteria to be included in the selected domain (predominantly hydrophobics, domain criteria: Log Kow in the range 1 -7.5 and molecules containing C, H, F, Cl, Br, and I atoms) :

Log Koc = 0.81 LogKow + 0.10 = 0.81 * 1.48 + 0.10 = 1.30

Koc = 20 L/kg
