A comparison of log K ow (n-octanol–water partition coefficient) values for non-ionic, anionic, cationic and amphoteric surfactants determined using predictions and experimental methods
Abstract Background Surfactants are widely used across the globe both in industrial and consumer products. The n-octanol/water partition ratio or coefficient (log K ow) and n-octanol/water distribution coefficient (log D) are key parameters in environmental risk assessment of chemicals as they are o...
