Conclusions:
The partition coefficient n-octanol/water of the test item was determined according to the flask method. It was found to be: log Pow > 4.3845
Executive summary:

A study was conducted in accordance with EU method A.8 to determine the partition coefficient of the test substance using the shake flask method. The partition coefficient POWis defined as the ratio of the equilibrium concentrations of a dissolved test item in the two-phase system consisting of n-octanol and water. The partition coefficient POWis dimensionless and usually given in the form of its logarithm to base ten. The partition coefficient (n-octanol/water) of the test item was determined at room temperature to be: log POW= 4.3845
