Conclusions:
In a study according to OECD test guideline 121 under GLP, the adsorption coefficient log Koc of the registered substance is 3.7.
Executive summary:

The adsorption coefficient log Koc of the registered substance was estimated according to OECD Guideline for the testing of chemicals No. 121 to be log Koc = 3.7.

Description of key information

Adsorption is expected based on a measured log Koc value of 3.7 (OECD 121)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Koc at 20 °C:
5 011.9

Additional information

One study investigating the adsorption potential of Benzaldehyde, 2-hydroxy-5-nonyl, oxime, branched (CAS 174333-80-3) is available. The study was performed according to GLP and OECD guideline 121 (Frischmann 2010). The log Koc value at 25 °C is determined to be 3.7 (Koc = 5011.9). This value indicate that the substance exhibit potential for adsorption to organic soil and sediment particles.
