Conclusions:
The partition coefficient of the test item has been determined to be greater than 1 x 10 E10, log10 Pow >10.0.
Executive summary:

The determination was carried out by the HPLC Method, using a procedure designed to be compatible with Method A.8 Partition Coefficient of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 117 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 13 April 2004.

The test system consisted of a high performance liquid chromatograph with an appropriate detector. A reverse phase HPLC column with a very low percentage of polar groups was used and the mobile phase contained at least 25% aqueous phase.

Conclusion

The partition coefficient of the test item has been determined to be greater than 1 x 10 E10, log10 Pow >10.0.
