Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
adsorption / desorption: screening
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the physicochemical properties of the substance indicate that it can be expected to have a low potential for adsorption

Description of key information

Adsorption/desorption [trimethoxy(vinyl)silane]: Low potential for adsorption due to very rapid hydrolysis in contact with water

Log Koc for silanol hydrolysis product = -0.02 (predicted).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The substance hydrolyses very rapidly to substances which have low log Kow values (<3) and thus have low potential for adsorption, and the requirement for testing is waived.

For environmental exposure assessment, adsorption is predicted for the silanol hydrolysis product using the‘non-hydrophobics’ log Kow-based prediction method for log Koc developed by Sabljic and Güsten (1995) for the European Commission, and recommended in EU Guidance.

The relevant equation is:

Log Koc= 0.52 log Kow+ 1.02

Therefore, log Koc for silanol hydrolysis product, vinylsilanetriol = -0.02.
