Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

5.71
Temp.:
25 °C
pH:
7
Conclusions:
The Log Pow for the test material is estimated to be > 4.5.
Endpoint:
partition coefficient
Type of information:
calculation (if not (Q)SAR)
Adequacy of study:
weight of evidence
Study period:
2017
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Based on trend analysis of data from a publictation
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Based on the relation between the logKow and the number of carbons in the alkyl chain.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
estimation method (solubility ratio)
Partition coefficient type:
octanol-water
Type:
log Pow
Partition coefficient:
6.3
Temp.:
25 °C
pH:
7
Remarks on result:
other: Based on the relation: LogKow=0.519C-0.966, with C the number of carbons in the alkyl chain.

Curve logKow versus number of carbons based on the publication:

Alkyl lactate Number of carbon Log Kow Bowmer
propyl lactate 3 0.591
butyl lactate 4 1.11
pentyl lactate 5 1.629
octyl lactate 8 3.186
decyl lactae 10 4.224

LogKow=0.519C-0.966

Description of key information

Based on estimation by ECOSAR or Trend analysis, the LogKow ranged from 5.7 to 6.3.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Log Kow (Log Pow):
5.7
at the temperature of:
25 °C
