Mean partition coefficient result (Log Pow): 0.26

Conclusions:
The partition coefficient (also known as distribution coefficient) is a physicochemical property of a material, which reflects the relative aqueous, and lipid solubilities and ionization behaviour. The phase distribution is independent of the concentration of dilute species.
The test is conducted in accordance with the procedure described in EU Regulation (EC) 440/2008, Annex Part A test A8 and OECD Test Guideline 107.
Mean partition coefficient result (Log Pow): 0.26 at 20°C.
