Description of key information
Water solubility [Fatty alcohols C16 – C18 (even numbered), branched and linear]: <0.15 mg/l at 20°C (EU Method A.6)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Fatty alcohols C16 – C18 (even numbered), branched and linear is a substance of unknown or variable composition (UVCB)containing linear and branched alcohols with carbon number in the range C14-C20. A measured water solubility of <0.15 mg/l at 20°C and pH 6.7 was determined for the whole substance in accordance with EU Method A.6. The result is considered reliable and selected as key study. This value is supported by predicted water solubility in the range 1.9E-03 - 1.4E-01 mg/l which was determined for the constituents of the substance using a validated QSAR estimation method. In a secondary source to which reliability could not be assigned, the substance was reported as insoluble.
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.
