Notes: This guideline value may be less than the common limit of detection in some jurisdictions. Contact jurisdictions for guidance. Free-phase formation, a circumstance deemed unacceptable by many jurisdictions, occurs when a substance exceeds its solubility limit in soil water. The concentration at which this occurs is dependent on a number of factors, including soil texture, porosity, and aeration porosity. Under the assumptions used for this guideline, at concentrations greater than 430 mg·kg-1 soil, formation of free-phase ethylbenzene will likely occur. Contact jurisdiction for guidance. | |||||||||||||
