Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Endpoint:
adsorption / desorption: screening
Type of information:
(Q)SAR
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
results derived from a valid (Q)SAR model and falling into its applicability domain, with adequate and reliable documentation / justification
Justification for type of information:
The substance is a hydrocarbon UVCB. Standard tests for this endpoint are intended for single substances and are not appropriate for this complex substance. However, this endpoint is characterised using quantitative structure property relationships for representative hydrocarbon structures that comprise the hydrocarbon blocks used to assess the environmental risk of this substance with the PETRORISK model (see Product Library in PETRORISK report attached in IUCLID section 13).
Qualifier:
no guideline required
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Model(s) used: PETRORISK v7.04 that incorporates the updated TLM that resulted from the 2014 – 2016 Concawe projects performed in response to an ECHA compliance check

Conclusions:
Adsorption coefficient has been calculated using Petrorisk. The 4% unknown constituent was accounted for by scaling all blocks evenly to reach 100%. The log Koc for this substance ranges from 2.67 - 5.95. The Koc for this substance ranges from 4.68 x10^2 - 8.91 x10^5.

Description of key information

Hydrocarbons, C10 -C14 (even numbered), n-alkanes, isoalkanes, <2% aromatics are hydrocarbon UVCBs. Standard tests for this endpoint are intended for single substances and are not appropriate for this complex substance. However, this endpoint is characterised using quantitative structure property relationships for representative hydrocarbon structures that comprise the hydrocarbon blocks used to assess the environmental risk of this substance with the PETRORISK model (see Product Library in PETRORISK report attached in IUCLID section 13).

Adsorption coefficient has been calculated using Petrorisk.  The 4% unknown constituent was accounted for by scaling all blocks evenly to reach 100%. The Koc for Hydrocarbons, C10 -C14 (even numbered), n-alkanes, isoalkanes, <2% aromatics ranges from 4.68 x10^2 - 8.91 x10^5.

The following data on other representative substances have been included as a weight of evidence. The data is estimated using the calculation in the Concawe Library of Petrorisk, using SPARC v4.2 program (May 2008).

Koc of decane has been estimated to be 1.45 x10^4 L/kg, using a log Kow of 5.86.

Koc of undecane has been estimated to be 5.62 x10^4 L/kg, using a log Kow of 6.42.

Koc of dodecane has been estimated to be 1.10 x10^5 L/kg, using a log Kow of 6.98.

Koc of tretradecane has been estimated to be 7.59 x10^5 L/kg, using a log Kow of 8.11.
