Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
TAEE is mainly distributed to the atmosphere (93.1%) and volatilisation may be expected from water and soil. Adsorption to particulate matter is unlikely to occur.
Executive summary:

Using a fugacity model (level I) (Fugacity based EQC Equilibrium Criterion Model v3.00 [Canadian Environmental Modelling Centre, 2004]), the theoretical distribution of TAEE based on physico-chemical properties between four environmental compartments at equilibrium can be calculated. The results indicate that 93.1% is distributed to the atmosphere and that volatilisation may be expected from water and soil. Adsorption to particulate matter is unlikely to occur.
