Details on study design: HPLC method:

EQUIPMENT
- Apparatus: Agilent Series 1100/1200 HPLC
- Type, material and dimension of analytical (guard) column: Zorbax CN column (150 mm x 4.6 mm x 5 µm particle size)
- Detection system: Agilent Series 1200 varibale wavelength UV detector

MOBILE PHASES
- Type: Gradient mobile phase consisting of HPLC-grade Reagent Water and methanol (Initial 55% MeOH, 45% H2O).
- Experiments with additives carried out on separate columns: no
- pH:6
- Solutes for dissolving test and reference substances:Test substance in acetonitrile, Reference substances in acetonitrile or methanol

DETERMINATION OF DEAD TIME
- Method:by inert substances which are not retained by the column (injection of thiourea)

REFERENCE SUBSTANCES
- Identity: Bromobenzene, napthalene (99%), 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene, phenanthrene (98%), 1,1-Bis(4-chlorophenyl)-2,2,2-trichloroethane (98% 4,4 DDT)

DETERMINATION OF RETENTION TIMES
- Quantity of test substance introduced in the column:10.0 mg/L and 50.0 mg/L
- Quantity of reference substances: 10-40 mg/L
- Intervals of calibration: none

REPETITIONS
- Number of determinations:3 at a concentration of 10.0 mg/L

EVALUATION
- Calculation of capacity factors k': k' = (tR-t0)/t0 where tR: retention time of the test substance or reference standard peak and t0: column dead time
- Determination of the log Koc value: calculated as follows:
log Koc = (log k' - Y intercept)/slope

Conclusions:

Under the chromatographic conditions specified, Brominated Epoxy eluted as three discrete peaks. The test substance is a mixture in which the main component is n = 1 (ca 70%). The mean log KOC for the first test substance peak (n = 1) was determined to be 5.33 ± 0.011 log units (N = 3, CV = 0.21%). The mean log KOC for the second and third test substance peaks (n = 2 and 3, respectively) were both determined to be greater than 5.63 using the HPLC estimation method. thus, the log Koc for F-2200 is 5.33.

Executive summary:

Under the chromatographic conditions specified, Brominated Epoxy eluted as three discrete peaks. The test substance is a mixture in which the main component is n = 1 (ca 70%). The mean log KOC for the first test substance peak (n = 1) was determined to be 5.33 ± 0.011 log units (N = 3, CV = 0.21%). The mean log KOC for the second and third test substance peaks (n = 2 and 3, respectively) were both determined to be greater than 5.63 using the HPLC estimation method. thus, the log Koc for F-2200 is 5.33.
