Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Based on the model calculations (Mackay level I, v 2.11) the target
compartment of the environmental distribution of 2-methyl-6-ethylaniline
is water.

Furthermore, following concentrations for aquatic biota and aerosol were determined:
Aquatic biota: < 0.01 %
Aerosol: < 0.01 %

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

Calculation according to Mackay Level I, the target compartment of the environmental distribution of 2-ethyl-6 -methylaniline is water with 80 %, followed by air with 14 %, and soil and sediment in each case 2.9 %. (Currenta 2009)
