Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.8 (Partition Coefficient - HPLC Method)
Deviations:
no

yes
Type of method:

Partition coefficient type:
octanol-water
Analytical method:
high-performance liquid chromatography
Key result
Type:
log Pow
Partition coefficient:
2
Temp.:
25 °C
pH:
6.8
Remarks on result:
other: mean value from 3 single values
Remarks:
Retention time (min): 2.799
Details on results:
In order to ensure a stable performance of the HPLC column, the column temperature was set to 40 °C. The reference Paw-values in the OECD guideline presumably refer to 25 °C. Even though the column temperature was 40 °C, this temperature has no influence on the result of the determination. Therefore the Pow-value of the test item determined within this study also refers to 25 °C.
Conclusions:
The partition coefficient (logPow) of 2.0 was determined at 25 °C and pH 6.8.
Executive summary:

The partition coefficient was determined by the HPLC-method according to OECD TG 117. The partition coefficient (Pow) was determined according to the HPLC method at 40 °C. In order to comply with the guideline OECD 117 and considering environmental relevance, buffered water at pH 6.8 was chosen. The reference Pow-values in the OE CD-guideline presumably refer to 25 °C. Even though the column temperature was 40 °C, this temperature is without influence on the result of the determination. The calibration was done referring to Pow- values of reference substances determined at 25 °C. For the determination of the partition coefficient (Koc) six calibration standards with log Koc from 1.0 -3.0 were established. The partition coefficient (logPow) of 2.0 was determined at 25 °C and pH 6.8. All validity criteria have been met.

Description of key information

Additional information

In order to ensure a stable performance of the HPLC column, the column temperature was set to 40 °C. The reference Paw-values in the OECD guideline presumably refer to 25 °C. Even though the column temperature was 40 °C, this temperature has no influence on the result of the determination. Therefore the Pow -value of the test item determined within this study also refers to 25 °C.
