Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

Sediment compartment:

The amount of (high quality) data that are represented by the FOREGS-dataset, was much larger than the information given in the other studies that were consideed relevant (see Table below). Moreover, the relevance of the Kd-values presented in these studies is questionable. Therefore a Mo-Kd of 1,778 L/kg is proposed for the sediment compartment

Suspended particulate material compartment:

An overview of the different relevant Kd,SPM-values that were selected for the derivation of a typical SPM-partition coefficient is given hereunder.

Magyar,1993  2,000 (log Kd: 3.30) and 2,568 (log Kd: 3.41) ; Average: 2,284 (log Kd: 3.36)
Neal et al (2000) 7,918 (log Kd: 3.90)
Average:     2,248 (log Kd: 3.35)

As each of these data points represents a specific location, it was decided that the average of these values could be put forward as the typical Kd for suspended particulate material.

Consequently, the derived value of 2,248 L/kg (log Kd of 3.35) is proposed as a typical Mo-Kd for suspended particulate material

Soil compartment:

The log Kd of 2.94 (i.e., 871 L/kg) - as proposed by Crommentuyn et al (1997) - is proposed as a typical Kd for the terrestrial compartment.
