Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Remarks on result:
other: see 'other information on results'

In accordance with Column 2 of REACH Annex VII and the ECHA guidance documents on information requirements, the adsorption-desorption study does not need to be conducted because vinyl chloroacetate decomposes rapidly and the degradation products produced have low potential for absorption. The Log Kow values for acetaldehyde and chloroacetic acid (the major products of vinyl chloroacetate hydrolysis) are well below the adsorption trigger value of 3.

Validity criteria fulfilled:
not applicable
Conclusions:
The substance has a low potential for adsorption.
Executive summary:

In accordance with Column 2 of REACH Annex VII and the ECHA guideline documents on information requirements, the adsorption-desorption study does not need to be conducted because vinyl chloroacetate decomposes rapidly and the degradation products produced have low potential for adsorption. The Log Kow values for acetaldehyde and chloroacetic acid (the major products of vinyl chloroacetate hydrolysis) are well below the adsorption trigger value of 3. Therefore it can be considered that vinyl chloroacetate has a low potential for adsorption.
