Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
According to the Mackay Level I model, the test item will mainly evaporate into the air (98.5 %)
Executive summary:

To assess the distribution of the test item between the different environmental compartments the distribution was predicted with the Mackay Level 1 model. Phys-chem data as molar mass, temperature, water solubility, vapor pressure, log Pow and melting point were used as data input. For the different media the following distribution was predicted:
