Results and discussion

Percent distribution in media

Air (%):
11.5
Water (%):
88.5

Any other information on results incl. tables

Over time, the substance will preferentially distribute into water.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
In air DMF shows a distribution level of 11.5 % and in water 88.5 %. Based on the calculation it is not expected to appear in soil, sediments and biota.
Executive summary:

Over time, the substance will preferentially distribute into water (88.5 %). For the remaining 11.5 % the air compartment will be the relevant sink.
