Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The partition coefficient was determined to be < -2.
Executive summary:

The n-octanol/water partition coefficient of the test item was determined according to OECD 107 and in compliance with GLP by means of the shake-flask method. The main test was performed at three different ratios of n-octanol and water.

The determined partition coefficient at 21.1°C is -2.08. As this value is below the limit of the method (log Pow < -2), a value of <-2 is reported.
