Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Additional information
Due to the low vapour pressure of stearamide, a Henry’s Law Constant of 0.105 Pa m³/mol and the rapid half-life in air of 0.5 days calculated according to SRC AOPWIN, it is concluded that stearamide will not accumulate in air and will not be transported through the vapour phase into other environmental compartments in relevant amounts. Thus, air is not a likely route of environmental contamination and no accumulation and subsequent deposition of stearamide is to be expected.
The calculated log Koc of 4.6 indicates a potential to adsorb to soil and sediment. However, due to the ready biodegradability, the substance will not persist in these compartments and as the test substance is poorly soluble in water (< 0.1 mg/L) it is expected that sediments are, if at all, only exposed to very small amounts of the test substance, as amounts will be present in wastewater, they will be eliminated in common wastewater treatment plants to a large amount due to the readily biodegradability of stearamide.
The overall environmental fate profile indicates that stearamide is not to be persistence in the environment.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).
