Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Key study: BCFBAC v3.01 model predicted that the substance has a BCF of 69.21 L/kg wet-wt (log BCF from regression-based method = 1.840).

Supporting study: BCFBAC v3.01 model predicted that the substance has a BCF of 3.1 L/kg wet-wt (log BCF from regression-based method = 0.49).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

BCF (aquatic species):
69.21 L/kg ww

Additional information

It should be also taken into account that the substance undergoes rapid hydrolysis (half-life < 4 min) in aqueous to MPKO. The estimated log octanol-water partition coefficients (Log Kow) for the degradation product was estimated to be 1.25 (OECD 107, GLP study). Morevoer, the corresponding silanols undergo continuous condensation reactions to produce higher molecular weight siloxanes which are considered biologically unavailable. Based on the available information, the test item is determined to have low bioconcentration potential based on the properties of its degradation products.
