Description of key information

The adsorption coefficient of the test item was log Koc = 2.85

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Koc at 20 °C:
707.95

Additional information

The adsorption coefficient of the test item was determined according to the HPLC method described in guideline 67/548 EEC, annex C.19.

The adsorption coefficient of the test item was found to be: 2.85

Indigo suspension adsorbs to 88% to 97% to activated sludge of sewage treatment plants. It is therefore effectively eliminated by sewage treatment plants.
