Conclusions:
The adsorption coefficient (Koc) of the test material has been determined to be >4.27 x 10E5, log10 Koc >5.63
Executive summary:

Adsorption Coefficient

Greater than 4.27 x 105, log10 Koc >5.63, using the HPLC screening method, Method C19 of Commission Directive 2001/59/EC.

Endpoint:
adsorption / desorption: screening
Type of information:
(Q)SAR
Adequacy of study:
weight of evidence
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
Calculation of the log Koc to determine the potential for adsorption/desorption of chemicals is acceptable provided that a recognised and scientifically robust methos is used. SPARC v4.2 program has been used to calculate Koc using the log Kow. This approach is considered to be acceptable with restrictions. The information does not come from a test report, and the minimum fields required cannot be filled in.
Justification for type of information:
A discussion and report on the read across strategy is given as an attachment in IUCLID Section 13.
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
read-across: supporting information
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Calculated using SPARC v4.2 (May 2008)
GLP compliance:
no
Remarks:

Type of method:

Media:

Radiolabelling:
no
Type:
Koc
Value:
184 000 000 000

Equation used : log Koc = 0,00028 + 0,983 * logKow

Log kow used : 11.46

Validity criteria fulfilled:
not applicable
Remarks:
calculated
Conclusions:
Estimated Koc using SPARC v4.2 is 1.84x10^11 L/kg.
Executive summary:

Koc of icosane has been estimated by calculation in the Concawe Library of Petrorisk, using SPARC v4.2 program (may 2008). The calculated value is 1.84x10^11 L/kg, using a log Kow of 11.46. This result suggests that icosane is expected to be immobile in soil.

Description of key information

The adsorption coefficient (Koc) of the test material (C18-C50 branched, cyclic and linear hydrocarbons – Distillates (CAS# 848301-69-9) was determined to be >4.27 x 10E5, log10 Koc >5.63.

The Koc of icosane has been estimated by calculation in the Concawe Library of Petrorisk, using SPARC v4.2 program (May 2008). The calculated value is 1.84 x 1011 L/kg, using a log Kow of 11.46. This result suggests that icosane is expected to be immobile in soil.

The data available for C18-C50 branched, cyclic and linear hydrocarbons – Distillates (CAS# 848301-69-9) and icosane is used for read across to Docosane.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Koc at 20 °C:

Additional information

The determination for C18 -C50 branched, cyclic and linear hydrocarbons - Distillates was carried out using the HPLC screening method, Method C19 of Commission Directive 200l/59/EC (which constitutes Annex V of Council Directive 67/548/EEC). The adsorption coefficient (Koc) of the test material was determined to be >4.27 x 105, log10 Koc >5.63. The test material was known to primarily be a complex mixture of alkanes. As the test material eluted after the mobile phase had been adjusted to 100% solvent, all components were deemed to be greater than that of the highest calibration standard.

The Koc of icosane has been estimated by calculation in the Concawe Library of Petrorisk, using SPARC v4.2 program (May 2008). The calculated value is 1.84 x 1011 L/kg, using a log Kow of 11.46. This result suggests that icosane is expected to be immobile in soil.
