Description of key information

According to REACH annex 9 (column 2), this study does not need to be conducted as the substance has a low potential for bioaccumulation (the measured log Pow is 0.61). 
Modelling using the EPIWIN (v3.10) Program was done for dipropylene glycol methyl ether acetate.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

BCF (aquatic species):

Additional information

According to REACH annex 9 (column 2), this study does not need to be conducted as the substance has a low potential for bioaccumulation (the measured log Pow is 0.61).

The estimated log BCF = 0.5000 and the estimated BCF = 3.162. The test material has low potential for bioaccumulation based on its high water solubility.
