Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
partition coefficient
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
Study conducted according to internationally accepted testing guidelines. Although the values recorded are outside of the applicability domain for the test method, the results can be considered as reliable and representative for the tested substance. The study outcomes are indicative of a high affinity with the water phase, respect than the octanol one.

Executive summary:

Partition coefficient was determined by means of shake flask method as per recommendations of OECD 107. Partition coefficient (P) is defined as the ratio of the equilibrium concentrations of a dissolved substance in a two-phase system consisting in two largely immiscible solvents.

Study conducted at 20 °C and at pH of 6.41.

Average Pow: 0.0042 (SD: 0.0007)

Average log Pow: -2.3894 (SD: 0.077)

Conclusion

Average Pow: 0.0042 at 20 °C and at pH of 6.41

Average log Pow: -2.3894 at 20 °C and at pH of 6.41

Description of key information

Average log Pow: -2.3894, at 20 °C and pH 6.41
