Additional information

Experimental studies on adsorption/desorption of Isotridecanol, ethoxylated, < 2.5 EO (CAS 69011-36-5) are not available. The adsorption potential of the substance was therefore assessed by QSAR-calculations (EPI Suite v4.11) using the Molecular Connectivity Index (MCI) and the log Kow method implemented in the KOCWIN v2.00. Representative smiles-codes for a C13 branched alcohol as well as for alcohols with an ethoxylation of 1 EO, 2 EO and 3 EO were used as input information for the calculation. The representative structures fall within the applicability domain of both models and thus the calculations are considered valid. The results are given as ranges representing the variation of the degree of ethoxylation according to substance specifications. The log Koc values calculated by the log Kow based method range from 2.532 to 3.263 (Koc:. 340.3 – 1831 l/kg). The log Koc range calculated by the MCI based method is 2.376 – 2.645 (Koc: 237.8 – 441.7 L/kg).

The available results indicate that Alcohols, C10-12 (even numbered), ethoxylated, < 2.5 EO (CAS 67254-71-1) has a low potential to adsorb onto sediment and suspended solids.
