the small-$\rho$ asymptotics of $$I(\rho)=-\int_{1.1}^{\infty}\frac{\sin(k\rho)}{\rho k^{1.9}\ln k}\,dk$$

is governed by the large-$k$ behavior of the integrand, which gives $I(\rho)\propto \rho^{1.9-2}$ up to a logarithmic factor, and a numerical evaluation supports the asymptotic

$$I_{\rm asymp}(\rho)=-\rho^{-0.1}(3.5+0.126\ln\rho)$$
