Conclusions:
Using the shake-flask method, the log Pow of the substance at ca. 23°C has been determined as -0.44.

Description of key information

Log Pow at ca. 23°C: -0.44 (EC A.8 and OECD 107: shake-flask method)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Log Kow (Log Pow):
-0.44
at the temperature of:
23 °C
