| Volatilization | The Henry's Law constant for ethylene sulfide is estimated as 3.5X10-4 atm-cu m/mole(SRC) using a fragment constant estimation method(1). This Henry's Law constant indicates that ethylene sulfide is expect 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 8 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 approximately 5 days(SRC). Ethylene sulfide 's Henry's Law constant indicates that volatilization from moist soil surfaces may occur(SRC). Ethylene sulfide is expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon an estimated vapor pressure of 250 mm Hg(3).

| Soil Adsorption | Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of ethylene sulfide can be estimated to be 26(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that ethylene sulfide is expected to have very high mobility in soil.
