Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Results and discussion

Water solubility

Remarks on result:
other: No information on pH available.
Remarks:
Value assigned to substances classified as miscible or infinitely soluble in water.
Details on results:
The experimental data was extracted taken from EPI Suite. The developers of KOWWIN assigned a water solubility of 1000 g/L according to the following criteria.
“Approximately 100 compounds in the regression dataset are classified as "miscible" or "infinitely" soluble in water. These compounds were assigned a numeric water solubility of 106 mg/L and regression results constrained estimates to this limit. For example, an unconstrained regression estimates ethylene glycol (which is miscible) to have a water solubility of nearly 107 mg/L; however, any estimate greater than 106 is automatically reduced to 106. To check this numeric assumption of 106 for miscibility, a separate regression was performed excluding these compounds and the results were very close to the regressions that included them.”
