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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
Additional information
N-octylamine is stable and does not hydrolyze under ambient conditions. It does undergo photolysis in air, whereas photolysis is unlikely to occur in water. The substance was found to be readily biodegradable in water. Significant bioconcentration potential is not estimated and bioaccumulation in the aquatic food chain is not expected. The adsorption to organic carbon in soil is expected (log Koc=4.25 at pH 7), based on calculations using the Pow at ambient soil pH-values. The pH-corrected Henry's Law Constant indicates that the substance is not expected to evaporate from the water surface into the atmosphere. Regarding distribution in the environment, the uncharged substance will preferentially distribute into the compartments air (88.7%) and water (7.7%) over time (Mackay Level I). Based on Level-III-model calculations, emissions of n-octylamine will distribute predominantly into soil (77%) and water (20%). Significantly less proprotions will distribute into air or sediment
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
