Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Quantitation

Spectrophotometric method

No meaningful difference in spectral absorbance occurs at usable wavelengths. Results below 220 nm for the basic sample solutions (i.e. pH 11.8 and 12.7) should be ignored. Hydroxide ion is a strong absorber below 220 nm - the UV/Vis spectrophotometer cannot correct for the resulting high blank thus leading to anomalous results below 220 nm. No loss of concentration due to physisorption of the test substance on the glassware or degradation of the substance due to hydrolysis was observed.

Potentiometric method

No inflection attributable to the presence of the test material can be seen.

Conclusions:
Under the conditions of the test, it was determined that the test material does not exhibit a dissociation constant in the range of pKa 2 to 12. It was estimated that the test material has a pKa > 12.
Executive summary:

In a GLP compliant dissociation constant study conducted in accordance with guideline 63-10, the dissociation constant of the test material was determined. Under the conditions of the test, the substance does not exhibit a dissociation constant in the range of pKa 2 to 12 and is estimated to have a pKa > 12.

Description of key information

Dissociation constant estimated pKa > 12; study conducted in accordance with Guideline 63-10; Tang and Rose (1988)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

In a GLP compliant dissociation constant study conducted in accordance with a standard guideline, the dissociation constant of the test material was determined. Under the conditions of the test, the substance does not exhibit a dissociation constant in the range of pKa 2 to 12 and is estimated to have a pKa > 12.
