Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
adsorption / desorption, other
Remarks:
QSAR
Type of information:
other: Structural assessment
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
study well documented, meets generally accepted scientific principles, acceptable for assessment
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The Log soil adsorption coefficient (Log Koc) of the test material was estimated using the Adsorption Coefficient Program (KOCWIN version 2.00, US EPA). However, as the constituents of the test material are Quaternary Ammonium Compounds (QAC’s), the prediction software is not capable of predicting realistic KOC values. As a result, the Koc has been estimated using the EUSES calculation based on the Kow value of the test material.
GLP compliance:
no
Remarks:
No laboratory work was performed in this study. GLP is therefore not required.
Type of method:
other: calculation

RESULT

The Log Kow of the test material is -1.58 (weighted average value)

The Kow of the test material is 0.0263.

Koc is derived from Kow as below:

Koc = [(10.47 x 0.0263^0.52) / 1000] = 0.00158 m^3/kg

Koc = 1.58 L/kg

Validity criteria fulfilled:
not applicable
Conclusions:
The Koc has been estimated to be 1.58 L/kg.
Executive summary:

The Log soil adsorption coefficient (Log Koc) of the test material was estimated using the Adsorption Coefficient Program (KOCWIN version 2.00, US EPA). However, as the constituents of the test material are Quaternary Ammonium Compounds (QAC’s), the prediction software is not capable of predicting realistic Kocvalues.

As a result, the Koc has been estimated using the EUSES calculation based on the Kow value of the test material. 

The Koc for the test material has been calculated to be 1.58 L/kg.

Description of key information

The Koc for the test material has been calculated to be 1.58 L/kg.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Koc at 20 °C:
1.58

Additional information

The soil adsorption coefficient (Koc) of the test material was estimated using the Adsorption Coefficient Program (KOCWIN version 2.00, US EPA). However, as the constituents of the test material are Quaternary Ammonium Compounds (QAC’s), the prediction software is not capable of predicting realistic Koc values.

As a result, the Koc has been estimated using the EUSES calculation based on the weighted average Kow value of the test material. 

The Koc for the test material has been calculated to be 1.58 L/kg.
