  • NFPA Fire Rating: 1 - Materials that must be preheated before ignition can occur. Materials require considerable preheating, under all ambient temperature conditions, before ignition and combustion can occur. Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)

  • Environmental Bioconcentration: An estimated BCF of 600 was calculated for 1-tridecanol(SRC), using a log Kow of 5.82(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high(SRC), provided the compound is not metabolized by the organism(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 35,000(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 5.82(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 1-tridecanol is expected to be immobile in soil(SRC). Volatilization of 1-tridecanol from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 1.3X10-4 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), using a fragment constant estimation method(4). However, adsorption to soil is expected to attenuate volatilization(SRC). 1-Tridecanol is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 4.36X10-4 mm Hg(5). A biodegradation half life of 5.6 days(SRC) can be calculated, using a first order degradation rate of 5.2X10-3 1/hr(6), suggesting that biodegradation may be an important environmental fate process in soil(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 35,000(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 5.82(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 1-tridecanol is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(3) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 1.3X10-4 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), developed using a fragment constant estimation method(4). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 14 hours and 8.5 days, respectively(SRC). However, volatilization from water surfaces is expected to be attenuated by adsorption to suspended solids and sediment in the water column. The estimated volatilization half-life from a model pond is 16 years if adsorption is considered(5). According to a classification scheme(6), an estimated BCF of 600(SRC), from its log Kow(2) and a regression-derived equation(7), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high(SRC). A biodegradation half-life of 5.6 days(SRC) can be calculated, using a first order degradation rate of 5.2X10-3 1/hr(8), suggesting that biodegra Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 1-tridecanol, which has a vapor pressure of 4.36X10-4 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 1-tridecanol is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC); the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 20 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 1.96X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) that was derived using a structure estimation method(3).

Continue the compliance check

1. Confirm identity

Match the supplier specification, CAS/EC identifiers and composition to this official label name. Similar wording is not proof of chemical equivalence.

2. Review restrictions

Check every exact Annex record shown above, plus CMR, nanomaterial, SCCS and later-amendment requirements that may apply.

3. Verify the formula

Evaluate concentration, product type, purity, warnings, claims and each target market before making a compliance decision.
