Remarks:
The determination was performed at 35 °C (temperature of the column) but the value obtained can be considered to represent the value at an unspecified, probably ambient temperature.
Details on results:
Under the conditions of the test, the chromatograms of the test substance show one peak at an average retention time of 8.457 minutes, corresponding to a partition coefficient (log value) of 4.3.
The determination was performed at 35 °C (temperature of the column), but the value obtained can be considered to represent the value at an unspecified, probably ambient temperature since no mention is made in the guidelines of the temperature at which the tabulated reference substances lo Pow values were determined. Partition coefficients of the test and reference substances are assumed to vary with the temperature in the same way.
