Referenceopen allclose all
The logKow for the registration substance was calculated using the values in the table below:
| C-chain length | measured logKow (see report Paulson, 2010, nr. 10AC0090) | Typical concentration in the registration substance (%) |
| C12 | 1.26 | 73 |
| C14 | 2.16 | 23 |
| C16 | 2.6 | 2 |
The measurements were made at a pH of 5-6 and at an initial concentration of 507 µg/L in the water phase (about 10% of the critical micelle
concentration (CMC) in water) and at 25°C. The partition coefficient value was determined from the weighed average of the concentrations of the main components in the product listed in the table below.

Description of key information
The partition coefficient is 1.5 (log Pow).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Log Kow (Log Pow):
- 1.5
- at the temperature of:
- 25 °C
Additional information
For the estimation of the partition coefficient read across has been made from a substance with approximately the same carbon chain distribution but containg small amounts of both shorter and longer carbon chain lengths. Since there are measured values for each single carcon chain length the final value was adjusted by recalculating it by using the typical chain lentgh distribution of the registration substance.
