Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Amides, C8-18 even numbered, N-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl] represent a mixture containing C8-, C10-, C12-, C14-, C16-, and C18-alkyl side chains. Based on this and the variable composition of the compound (alkyl chain distribution dependent on origin of the coco fatty acid) the calculation of physico-chemical properties for the mixture is not feasible. To get a hint on the physico-chemical data, a calculation was conducted for the C8, C12 and the C18 derivates. The n-octanol/water partition coefficients log Kow were calculated using EPIWIN v4.0, KOAWIN v1.10.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Amides, C8-18 even numbered, N-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl] represents a mixture containing C8-, C10-, C12-, C14-, C16-, and C18-alkyl side chains. Based on this and the variable composition of the compound (alkyl chain distribution dependent on origin of the coco fatty acid) the calculation of physico-chemical properties for the mixture is not feasible. To get a hint on the physico-chemical data, a calculation was conducted for the C8, C12 (with 40-60 percentages in a substance) and the C18 derivates. n-Octanol/water partition coefficients log Kow of 2.44 (C8 derivate), 4.40 (C12 derivate) and 7.35 (C18 derivate, at 25°C each) were calculated using EPIWIN v4.0, KOAWIN v1.10. Due to missing information about the applicability of the calculation model in respect to the substance under investigation the results should be treated with care.
