Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Log Kow  (estimated)  :  0.82

Log Kow (experimental):  0.88

Log Kow used by BCF estimates:  0.88

Equation Used to Make BCF estimate: Log BCF = 0.50

Correction(s):     Correction Factors Not Used for Log Kow < 1

Estimated Log BCF =  0.500  (BCF = 3.162)
