Any other information on results incl. tables
The Level III model predicted that 99.98% of vinyl chloride directly emitted to the atmosphere will stay in the atmosphere. The dominant removal process is reaction with atmospheric hydroxyl radical (T1/2 = 1.5 days). The total estimated persistence of vinyl chloride in the atmosphere is 34.2 hours. Less than 0.02% of the emitted vinyl chloride is predicted to migrate to the water, soil, or sediment compartments.
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.
