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 adsorption behavior of TMAC was studied in three different soils, including a loamy sand (Speyer 2.2 soil; %oc 1.87), a sandy loam (Speyer 2.3 soil; %oc 0.94) and a clay soil (Speyer 6S soil; %oc 1.64).
Adsorption kinetics were determined at an initial TMAC concentration of approximately 10 mg/L. A rapid increase of the adsorption of TMAC to the soils in the first 3 hours contact time was observed for all three soils. The adsorption plateau was reached after 3 hours for all three soils.
Adsorption isotherms were determined over a TMAC concentration range of 0.25 - 25 mg/L and a contact time of 24 hours. TMAC adsorption isotherms could be described by the Freundlich equation. KFoc was determined to be 91.5 (1/n=0.82) , 567 (1/n=0.64) and 979 (1/n=0.78) mL/g for the soil Speyer 2.2, Speyer 2.3 and Speyer 6S, respectively. The mean Koc for the three soils was 546 mL/g.
