Description of key information

Additional information

Due to rapid hydrolysis, 2 -ethylhexanoyl chloride will not be present in the environment for a significant time. The substance degrades spontaneously in contact with aqueous media. Therefore, the fate in the environment is mainly based on the hydrolysis product 2 -ethylhexanoic acid.

Adsorption

Adsorption of the hydrolysis product 2 -ethyhexanoic acid to solid soil phase is not expected.

Henry Law Constant

The hydrolysis product 2 -ethylhexanoic acid will not evaporate into the atmosphere from the water surface.
