Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The partition coefficient n-octanol/water (Log Kow) of C4 acrylate was determined to be 4.19 at 22 °C using EPA OPPTS 830.7550 (Partition Coefficient, n-octanol / H2O, Shake Flask Method) and OECD 107 “Partition Coefficient (n-Octanol/water): Shake Flask Method”.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The partition coefficient n-octanol/water of C4 acrylate was measured based on U.S EPA guidance document OPPTS 830.7550 “Partition Coefficient (n-Octanol/Water), Shake Flask Method” and OECD 107 “Partition Coefficient (n-Octanol/water): Shake Flask Method”, and was conducted under GLP. C4 acrylate was shaken in octanol/water mixture ratios of 1:1, 1:2 and 2:1 at 22 °C for approximately 6 days. The aqueous and n-octanol phases were separated by centrifuging and transferred to individual vials. C4 acrylate in octanol phase and aqueous phase were analyzed separately using LC/MS/MS. The log Kow of C4 Acrylate was determined to be 4.19 at 22.2 (±1.0)°C and at a pH of 6.8 (±0.3).
