Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

All five nickel compounds (nickel chloride, nickel dinitrate, nickel hydroxycarbonate, nickel sulphate, nickel metal) release Ni2+ into the environment, and partitioning coefficients for this ionic form are therefore relevant for all five substances. Ni2+ partitioning coefficient for solid-water in suspended matter (Kp susp) is 26303 (log Kp susp = 4.42). Ni2+ partitioning coefficient for sediment-porewater (Kp sed) is 7,079 (log Kp sediment = 3.85). Ni2+ partitioning coefficient for soil-water (Kp soil) is 726 (log Kp soil = 2.86). Ni2+ partitioning coefficients were based on 50th percentiles of distributions of values from available high quality data.
