Description of key information

The water solubility of C16-18 DMAPA amido amine was determined to be 3.65 mg/L ± 0.8 mg/L at 23°C (pH 4-6) (OECD guideline 105/EU method A.6, slow stirring method/HPLC).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Water solubility:
3.65 mg/L
at the temperature of:
23 °C

Additional information

The water solubility of C16-18 DMAPA amidoamine was analysed by slow stirring method and subsequent analysis with HPLC/CAD in accordance with OECD guideline 105 (27 July 1995) and EU method A.6 (30 May 2008). The analysis was focused on the two main alkyl constituents representing ≥85 % of C16-18 DMAPA amidoamine. The water solubility of the test item at 23°C (pH 4 -6) was determined to 3.65 mg/L ± 0.8 mg/L.

The following results from supporting substances are used for justification of read-across:

The water solubility of Stearic acid 3-(dimethylaminopropyl)amide was determined according to OECD guideline 105, 27 July 1995, using the flask method. The water solubility of Stearic acid 3-(dimethylaminopropyl)amide is 10 mg/L at 20°C (pH 6.8).

The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of Stearic acid 3-(dimethylaminopropyl)amide was determined according to ISO 4311, using the plate method.The CMC of Stearic acid 3-(dimethylaminopropyl)amide hydrochloride is 220 mg/L at 25°C.

The surface tension of the test substance C22-trimethylammonium chloride (Oh 05/233) was determined as a function of concentration. From the change in slope the critical micelle concentration (cmc) was determined. The critical micelle concentration of C22-alkyltrimethylammonium chloride is 0.01 g/L at 25°C.
