Reference
Endpoint:
water solubility
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2013
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 105 (Water Solubility)
Deviations:
no
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.6 (Water Solubility)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Type of method:
flask method
Water solubility:
> 143 g/L
Temp.:
20 °C
Remarks on result:
other: The pH value could not be determined with a membrane-electrode and also not visual with a pH-Indicator strip.
Details on results:
The water solubility of the substance calculated using carbon content was > 143 g/L. A saturated solution (solution with residue) of the substance could not be prepared because the test mixture changed to a gelatinous substance during the stirring process. Therefore a main test of the water solubility of the substance could not be performed.

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information): very soluble (> 10000 mg/L)
The water solubility of the substance is > 143 g/L at 20°C. A determination at a higher concentration could not be performed as the substance turned to a gelatinous mass.
Executive summary:

According to the OECD Guideline 105 the water solubility was determined via the flask method. In preliminary tests a water solubility of > 143 g/L at 20°C was received. Due to the fact that usually no standard compounds are available for UVCB substances TOC analysis was performed. A saturated solution could not be received because the test mixture changed to a gelatinous substance during the stirring process. Therefore a main test of the water solubility for the substance could not be performed.

Description of key information

The water solubility of the substance is > 143 g/L at 20°C. A determination at a higher concentration could not be performed as the test mixture turned to a gelatinous mass.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Water solubility:
143 g/L
at the temperature of:
20 °C
