Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
No experimental results are available concerning the transport and distribution of Butyldiethanolamine in different environmental compartments.
Absorption / desorption
Based upon the intrinsic properties of the substance (i.e. LogPow = 0.58 at 25 °C (pH 10), BASF AG, 1993) and in accordance with the REACH Regulation, no experiment is triggered to determine the organic carbon-normalized sorption coefficient (Koc).
Nevertheless, the soil adsorption for BDEA has been calculated by KOCWIN v2.01 (Chemservice S.A., 2015). The traditional method gave a Koc of 2.279 L/kg, whereby the MCI method reveals a value of 10 L/kg. as result. The MCI method is taken more seriously into account due to the fact, that it includes improved correction factors. Conclusively, the substance possesses a low to medium affinity to soil.
Henry's Law Constant
The distribution of BDEA between aqueous solutions and air was determined by calculation using the software tool HENRYWIN v3.21 (Chemservice S.A., 2016, updated 2022). The bond contribution methodology splits a compound into smaller units (one atom to another atom only). The bond method includes individual hydrogen bond values; the group method does not.
Using the Bond Method, a Henry´s Law Constant of 2.04E-5 Pa*m3/mol at 25 °C was calculated. The Group Method estimated a HLC of 5.95E-9 Pa*m3/mol. These values lead to the conclusion that the substance has only a low affinity to the air compartment.
Based on the conclusions drawn above as well as the high water solubility of the substance (Water solubility = 10 g/L; Feierabend, 2022), the substance will mainly be present in the water compartment.
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.
