- Type:
- Koc
- Value:
- < 20.9
- Type:
- log Koc
- Value:
- < 1.32
Results: HPLC method
- Details on results (HPLC method):
- Lactic acid eluted before phenol; phenol has a designated log Koc of 1.32. No relevant differences in the results were observed at neutral pH and pH 2.0.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Lactic acid log Koc < 1.32.
- Executive summary:
The adsorption coefficient (Koc) of Lactic acid 93% aq. on soil and on sewage sludge was determined using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
The Koc and log Koc value of the test substance at neutral pH and at pH 2 was <20.9 and <1.32, respectively.
