Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VIII, the adsorption/desorption screening and further studies on adsorption/ desorption, may be omitted if the substance has a low potential for adsorption, e.g. the log Pow value for the test substance is < 3.0. As the estimated logPow of the substance is -1.94 [est. with KOWWIN  v 1.68 (EpiSuite v 4.1)] the study does not need to be conducted.
For completeness, the Koc has been calculated with KOCWIN v4.10 (EPIWIN software by US-EPA):
Koc =10 L/kg (MCI method estimation)
Koc = 0.2034 L/kg (traditional method based on logPow)

Additional information

The prediction of soil adsorption properties of the substance 1,2,3 -propanetriol, glycidyl ethers was determined with the computer program KOCWIN v2.00 (EPIWIN software) by US-EPA (Chemservice GmbH, 2011). The program estimates the organic-normalized sorption coefficient for soil, which is designated as Koc. The following two models are used: the Salbjic molecular connectivity (MCI) method as well as the traditional method which is based on the logPow value of the substance. The MCI method is taken more seriously into account, due to the fact that improved correction factors are included, resulting in a Koc value of 10 L/kg. The traditional method reveals a value of 0.2034 L/kg. Based on the achieved results, the adsorption potential of the test substance is regarded as very low.
