Additional information

The potential of aspartic acid, N,N'-[methylenebis(2-methyl-4,1-cyclohexanediyl)]bis-, 1,1',4,4'-tetraethyl ester to sorb on soil or sediment was determined according to EU-Method C.19 (HPLC-Method) yielding a logKoc between 4.2 and 5.1 (Bayer AG, 2003). The sorption coefficient was determined at pH 6 and pH 8 showing that the sorption behaviour does not depend on the prevailing pH.

According to the classification of Swann et al. (1983), aspartic acid, N,N'-[methylenebis(2-methyl-4,1-cyclohexanediyl)]bis-, 1,1',4,4'-tetraethyl ester has a high potential to sorb on soil.

Aspartic acid, N,N'-[methylenebis(2-methyl-4,1-cyclohexanediyl)]bis-, 1,1',4,4'-tetraethyl ester is characterised by a calculated Henry Law Constant of 0.24 Pa*m³/mol (Currenta, 2009b). According to Thomas, cited in the "Handbook of Chemical property Estimation Methods" (Lyman, 1980), the substance tends to partition in water and volatilisation rates are controlled by the slow diffusion through the air. Therefore, the substance has to be scored as being slightly volatile from water.
