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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

INPUT DATA SET
The following physico-chemical properties of ETBE were used:
Molecular weight = 102
Data temperature = 20 degrees C
Log Kow = 1.48 (at 25 deg C; Montgomery, 1994)
Water solubility = 23700 mg/l (2.37% w/w; 20 degrees C; Chatin et al., 1994)
Vapour pressure = 29800 Pa (temperature not known; IUCLID database)
Melting point = -94 degrees C (EPIWIN database)
The reaction half-life was set at negligible reaction in all compartments.
LEVEL I RESULTS
The environmental distribution, as calculated from the above parameters using the Mackay Level I model (EQC program) is as follows:
To Air 96.2%
To Soil 0.098%
To Water 3.658%
To Fish 5.52E-06%
To Sediment 2.17E-03%
Applicant's summary and conclusion
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.
