Description of key information

Partially unsaturated IQAC, DMS quaternised will strongly interact with soils, sediment and suspended matter in natural environment. It is technically not feasible to determine a concrete soil sorption coefficient

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

In a study according the EC C.19 guideline (OECD 121) the adsorption coefficient Koc of the test item was studied. It was found that the test item strongly interacted with the analytical column. The reference substance 2,4 -DDT was detected and had a retention time of 6.15 minutes. Based on the results obtained it was concluded that the test substance has a Koc value of higher than the reference substance 2,4-DDT. It corresponds with Koc and log Koc value for the test substance of>427,000 (log Koc>5.63, respectively.A concrete soil sorption coefficient could not be determined as the test itemwas not eluted from the column. In the guideline, however, it is stated that the method may not work for surface active substances and the results confirm this. Therefore this study is not appropriate to determine the soil sorption coefficient.
