Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
Additional information
The substance is expected to partition strongly to soils, sediment and activated sludge in the environment. The soil adsorption study determined the values for adsorption coefficient (Koc) in five soil types; the Koc values ranged from 60,000 L/kg in sand (Speyer 2.1 soil type) to > 832,000 L/kg in clay/clayey loam (Speyer 6S soil type). This range of values indicated that the substance may be considered immobile in soil. From the activated sludge isotherm study, the value for soil (solids)/water partition coefficient (Kd) was 1150 L/kg, or log Kd = 3.06 (based on the linear regression of the six test concentrations), which indicated that the substance sorbs readily to sludge solids and would, therefore, be efficiently removed from a biological waste water treatment system by clarification. This finding regarding the strong sorption of the substance to sludge solids was supported a third study, which measured substance concentrations in the aqueous phase of a simulated activated sludge unit; this study showed that the substance was removed almost completely from the test system by adsorption to laboratory equipment and sludge.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
