Executive summary:

Method

Partition coefficient was determined by means of shake flask method as per recommendations of OECD 107. Partition coefficient (P) is defined as the ratio of the equilibrium concentrations of a dissolved substance in a two-phase system consisting in two largely immiscible solvents, i.e. n-octanol and water.

Result

Study conducted at 20 °C; no pH measured.

Average Pow: 0.0401.

Average log Pow: -1.3971.

Description of key information

-1.3971 (Pow: 0.0401) at 20 °C.
