Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Summary Results: Log BCF (regression-based estimate): 2.29 (BCF = 195.4 L/kg wet-wt)

Biotransformation Half-Life (days) : 0.4009

Log BCF (Arnot-Gobas upper trophic): 0.054 (BCF = 1.131 L/kg wet-wt)

Log BAF (Arnot-Gobas upper trophic): 0.084 (BAF = 1.215 L/kg wet-wt)

BCF (Bioconcentration Factor):

Log Kow used by BCF estimates: 9.52 (estimated)

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Calculated BCF is 195.4 L/kg wet weight.
Executive summary:

BCF has been calculated using the computer program BCFBAF (v3.01). It is predicted that the substance has BCF of 195.4 L/kg wet weight. Therefore the substance is not expected to be bioaccumulative.
