Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The environmental transport and distribution of the substance was evaluated in terms of adsorption/desorption. The adsorption coefficient was determined byhigh performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method according to EC method C.19 and OECD guideline 121.

The mean log Kocof two runs was 4.34 at 20 °C, thus within the determination limit of the method.

The soil adsorption coefficient (Koc) is used as an indicator, if a substance is likely to be sorbed to sediment. In general substances with a soil adsorption coefficient (Koc) smaller than 1000 l/kg, i.e. log Koc< 3, are not likely sorbed to sediment (SETAC 1993). On this basis, test substance is expected to have a high potential for adsorption on sediment and no mobility in the environment.

A supporting evidence was derived by an adsorption test on activated sludge. Colour removal, measured as variation of turbidity, was indicative of adsorption on the sludge. After 24-hour exposure, colour removal was complete (100 %).
