Volatilization
The Henry's Law constant for hexaldehyde is 2.13X10-4 atm-cu m/mole(1). This Henry's Law constant indicates that hexaldehyde 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 4 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 5 days(SRC). Hexaldehyde's Henry's Law constant indicates that volatilization from moist soil surfaces may occur(SRC). Hexaldehyde is expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 11.3 mm Hg(3).

Soil Adsorption
The Koc of hexaldehyde is estimated as 50(SRC), using a log Kow of 1.78(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that hexaldehyde is expected to have high mobility in soil.
