Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

logKoc values range between 3.5 and 9.0 (KOCWIN v2.00)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

No experimental studies investigating the adsorption/desorption potential of Octadecanoic acid, monoester with 1,2-propanediol (CAS 1323-39-3) and Palmitic acid, monoester with propane-1,2-diol (CAS 29013-28-3) are available. Therefore, the Koc was calculated using KOCWIN v2.00 based on the Molecular Connectivity Index (MCI) (Werth, 2014). Based on the expected composition of the reaction mass, the QSAR calculation was conducted for mono- and diesterified propylene glycol with Octadecanic acid and Palmitic acid. The results of the QSAR calculation for the monoesterified substances ranged between a logKoc value of 3.54 (Palmitic acid monoester with 1,2-propanediol) and 4.06 (Octadecanoic acid, monoester with 1,2-propanediol), whereas the logKoc values of diesterified substances ranged between 7.96 (Palmitic acid diester with 1,2-propanediol) and 9.00 (Octadecanoic acid, diester with 1,2-propanediol). The used QSAR model has no universally accepted definition of model domain, but since the two diesterified substance are outside the Kow range of the training set of the MCI model, the results should be taken with caution. The definite values may not be fully reliable, but indicate a high adsorption potential for the diesterified components, which is also to be expected based on the high Kow (> 10) and low water solubility.
