Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
The first key study was a soil adsorption test conducted in accordance with an established guideline, which reported soil-water partitioning coefficient (Kd) values and organic carbon adsorption coefficient (Koc) values for five soil types. The second key study was an activated sludge adsorption isotherm test conducted in accordance with an established guideline, which reported sludge soil-water partitioning at six test substance concentrations spanning two orders of magnitude.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Koc at 20 °C:
- 60 000
Other adsorption coefficients
- Type:
- log Kp (solids-water in activated sewage sludge)
- Value in L/kg:
- 3.06
- at the temperature of:
- 20 °C
Additional information
The substance is expected to partition strongly to soils, sediment and activated sludge in the environment. The soil adsorption study identified a range for Koc values, from 60,000 L/kg in sand (Speyer 2.1) to > 832,000 L/kg in clay/clayey loam (Speyer 6S). The key value of Koc = 60,000 L/kg, or log Koc = 4.78 (i.e., the lowest value in the reported range of values) was selected as a conservative value for purposes of predicting equilibrium partitioning between sediments or soils and their respective pore water compartments. From the activated sludge isotherm study, a Kd value of 1150 L/kg, or log Kd = 3.06 (based on the linear regression of the six test concentrations) was determined.
[LogKoc: 4.78]
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
