Description of key information
Additional information
The sorption capacity of m-cresol was investigated in batch equilibrium experiments yielding in a Koc value of 35 for a clay loam. This value indicates a low potential for adsorption of m-cresol.
An experimentally determined Henry's law constant of 0.087 Pa m3/mol at 25°C for m-cresol is available indicationg a low volatility from aqueous solution of the substance.
The distribution of m-cresol in a ”unit world” was calculated according to the Mackay fugacity model level I based on its physico-chemical properties. The main target compartment for m-cresol is water with 96.3 %, followed by air with 2 %, soil and sediment each with 0.7 %.
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.
