Key result
Type:
log Pow
Partition coefficient:
2.59
Temp.:
20 °C
pH:
7
Details on results:
The mean n-octanol solubility of the test substance was 250 g/L at 20°C.
Conclusions:
The log Pow of the test substance was determined based on its solubility in n-octanol and its solubility in water, measured as critical micelle concentration. The solubility in octanol was equivalent to 250 g/L (20°C) (Hirschen M, 2010), that in water to 0.65 g/L (20°C) (Schulze M, 2007). The log Pow is therefore 2.59.
Executive summary:

The solubility of the test substance in n-octanol was determined according to OECD Guideline 105. The mean n-octanol solubility of the test substance was 250 g/L at 20°C.

The log Pow of the test substance was determined based on its solubility in n-octanol and its solubility inwater, measured as critical micelle concentration. The solubility in octanol was equivalent to 250 g/L (20°C), that in water to 0.65 g/L (20°C) (Schulze M, 2007). The log Pow is therefore 2.59.
