In the model 1,3 -dichlorobenzene is treated as a type 1 chemical, i.e. the chemical partitions into all environmental media. Estimation is carried at an environmental temperature of 25 °C.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The distribution of 1,3-dichlorobenzene in a "unit world" was calculated according to the Mackay fugacity model level I based on the physico-chemical properties. The main target compartment for 1,3-dichlorobenzene by air with 98.5 %, followed by water with 0.998 %, by soil with 0.267 % and by sediment with 0.270 %.
