Description of key information

The octanol-water partition coefficients of constituents of Alcohols, C16-17, branched and linear are in the range 6.50-7.35 (HPLC method)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The log partition coefficients were determined in a reliable study.

Partition coefficient for a multi-constituent or UVCB substance is not meaningful scientifically for the purpose of assessment of exposure or risk. Exposure and risk are assessed on the basis of the individual constituents, as discussed in the CSR.
