Additional information

Based on the low vapour pressure value (0.0002 Pa at 20°C) of Glycerides, C8-21 and C8-21-unsatd., mono- and di-, acetates (CAS No. 97593-30-1), volatilization of the substance and subsequent accumulation and transport through the atmospheric compartment is expected to be low. Glycerides, C8-21 and C8-21-unsatd., mono- and di-, acetates is soluble in water (3.5-21.9 mg/L), however a significant degree of adsorption to sediment and soil particles can be expected if released into the environment (estimated log Koc = 3.7-4.2). Nevertheless, due to the readily biodegradable nature of the substance, it is not expected to be persistent in either aquatic or terrestrial compartments.
