Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
The substance was shown to immediately dissociate in the following components when dissolved in water: zinc chloride, a zinc hexacyanocobaltate complex as well as polypropylene glycol plus tertiary butyl alcohol. As zinc chloride as well as the zinc hexacyanocobaltate complex are purely inorganic, an octanol-water partition coefficient can only be determined for polypropylene glycol and tertiary butyl alcohol.
Tertiary butyl alcohol, one component formed during the dissociation of the substance in aqueous medium, is characterised by an experimentally determined logPow of 0.35.
Polypropylene glycol, one component formed during the dissociation of the substance complex in aqueous medium, is characterised by a calculated logPow of -0.21.
In summary, the n-octanol-water partition coefficient of the substance ranges between 0.35 (tertiary butyl alcohol) and -0.21 (polypropylene glycol).

Additional information
The substance was shown to immediately dissociate in zinc chloride, the zinc hexacyanocobaltate complex as well as polypropylene glycol plus tertiary butyl alcohol in water. Therefore, the partition behaviour of the parent substance is preferably described by the properties of its individual components.
As zinc chloride and zinc hexacyanocobaltate complex are purely inorganic, the partition behaviour of the substance is mainly described by the properties of the components tertiary butyl alcohol and polypropylene glycol. Concluding, the n-octanol-water partition coefficient of the substance ranges between 0.35 (tertiary butyl alcohol) and -0.21 (polypropylene glycol).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
