Description of key information

The Octanol/Water Partition Coefficient (Log Pow) of 1,6-Hexanediol Diglycidylether (HDDGE) was determined experimentally by an O.E.C.D. 107 Testing Guideline study and by QSAR estimation.  

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Log Kow (Log Pow):
0.822
at the temperature of:
20 °C

Additional information

The Octanol/Water Partition Coefficient (Log Pow) of 1,6-Hexanediol Diglycidylether (HDDGE) as determined experimentally by an O.E.C.D. 107 Testing Guideline study was 0.822. This value was supported by QSAR estimation of 0.84. This low Log Pow value suggests that ,6 -Hexanediol Diglycidylether has little or no potential to bioaccumulate in the aquatic environment.
