Description of key information

The adsorption coefficient (log Koc) of terpineol multiconstituent was estimated by two QSAR models:
- KOCWIN v2.00 in EPI Suite (v4.0) - MCI method using log Kow

- equations of Sabljic and Güsten (1995) using log Kow


The estimated Koc of terpineol was 202.50 L/kg (geometric mean of two QSAR models: 292 L/kg and 113 L/kg).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Koc at 20 °C:
202.5

Additional information

ECHA Guidance (chapter R.7.a,paragraph R.7.1.15) recommends to calculate the Koc endpoint value as the geometric mean of results obtained by means of QSAR models.

This geometric mean value is considered as the endpoint defining the substance potential for adsorption and can be used as input parameter for environmental risk assessment.

Estimation of Koc with MCI method:

Koc of constituents of terpineol multiconstituent were estimated using MCI method. These QSAR values were gathered to obtain the Koc of terpineol mutliconstituent. The composition of the substance was taken into account and Koc of terpineol multiconstituent was derived using a ponderate mean based on constituent/impurity contribution. The result is used as key value for chemical assessment.
