Description of key information

It is expected that the substance in the environment will  dissociates into its two main components Fatty acids C18- unsat, dimers (C36) and coco alkylamine.
The Koc for Cocoalkylamine ranges between log KOC:3.53-5.16, whereas the KOC for the Fatty acids C18-unsat, dimers (C36) ranges between log KOC : 7.4- 8.3.

Additional information

Fatty acid C18- unsat, dimer compd. with coco alkylamine

The substance Fatty acids C18- unsat, dimers compd. with coco alkylamine is the salt of the components Fatty acids C18-unsat, dimers (C36) and coco alkylamine (CAS:61788-46-3). Once Fatty acids C18-unsat, dimers compd. with coco alkylamine is entering the aquatic environment it is expected that the substance dissociates into its two components Fatty acids C18- unsat, dimers (C36) and coco alkylamine. Based on this assumption it is justified to evaluate both components with regard to their behavior in the environment individually.

Coco alkylamine:

EPISuite v4.1/Kocwin2.00: The Koc estimations for the main components of coco alkylamine are avialable. Dodecylamine is the dominating structure in Cocoalylamine, whereas Octadecylamine (C18) due to the longest C-chain is considered as the worst case structure with regard to adsoption. The KOC values are in a range of 3437 - 147200 (Log Koc 3.53-5.16), depending on the length of the C-chain of the components.

An EU risk assessmnet for primery amines ( AMINES, TALLOW ALKYL ,(Z)-OCTADEC-9-ENYLAMINE ,OCTADECYLAMINE , AMINES, HYDROGENATED TALLOW ALKYL AMINE , AMINES, COCO ALKYL, RISK ASSESSMENT from 2008) uses the following distribution rates to calculate the adsoption behaviour of primery amines including Coco alkylamine: Kpsoil 697 l.kg-1, Ksoil-water 1050 m3.m-3, Kpsusp 697 l.kg-1, Ksusp-water 175 m3.m-3, Kpsed 697 l.kg-1, Ksed-water 349 m3.m-3, Kpsludge 680 l.kg-1

 

Fatty acids C18-unsat, dimers (C36)

EPISuite v4.1/Kocwin2.00: The Log Koc values of the main conformation isomers of the UVCB Fatty acids, C18-unsatd., dimers, (C36) have been determined using KOCWIN™ v2.00 module of EPI Suite v.4.11. KOCWIN™. The log Koc for the substructure is in the range of 7.44 - 8.30.

 

Overall conclusion of Fatty acid C18- unsat, dimer compd. with coco alkylamine

The estimations performed for the 2 main components Coco alakylamine and Fatty acids, C18-unsatd., dimers, (C36) show that the adsorption potential of Fatty acid C18- unsat, dimer compd. with coco alkylamine is mainly driven by the adsorption potential of Fatty acid C18- unsat, dimers (C36).
