Volatilization | The Henry's Law constant for heptacosane is estimated as 655 atm-cu m/mole(SRC) using a fragment constant estimation method(1). This Henry's Law constant indicates that heptacosane is expected to volatilize from water surfaces(2). Based on this Henry's Law constant, the volatilization half-life from a model river (1 m deep, flowing 1 m/sec, wind velocity of 3 m/sec)(2) is estimated as 5.7 hours(SRC). The volatilization half-life from a model lake (1 m deep, flowing 0.05 m/sec, wind velocity of 0.5 m/sec)(2) is estimated as 7.7 days(SRC). Heptacosane's Henry's Law constant indicates that volatilization from moist soil surfaces may occur(SRC). The volatilization half-life from a model pond is greater than 2 years when adsorption is considered. Heptacosane is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon an extrapolated vapor pressure of 2.81X10-7 mm Hg at 25 deg C(3).

Soil Adsorption | Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of heptacosane can be estimated to be 3.9X10+7(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that heptacosane is expected to be immobile in soil. Literature: (1) US EPA; Estimation Program Interface (EPI) Suite.
