Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The target compartment of the equilibrium environmental distribution of isophorone is water (87.62 %), followed by air (11.75 %). The low percentages in other compartments reflect the low bioaccumulation and adsorption potential of isophorone.
Executive summary:

The target compartment of the equilibrium environmental distribution of isophorone according to Mackay Level 1 (excluding Aerosol) is water (87.62 %), followed by air (11.75 %).
