Description of key information

Biodegradation in soil 
Expert Judgement
If released to soil, Alcohols, C12-14 is expected to have very high mobility based upon an estimated Koc of 2245. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process.
Therefore testing for Biodegradation in water does not need to be performed

Key value for chemical safety assessment
