Results and discussion

Water solubility
Water solubility:
> 0.001 - < 0.01 g/L
Conc. based on:
test mat.
Incubation duration:
24 h
Temp.:
20 °C
pH:
>= 4.8 - <= 5
Details on results:
Due to problems developing and validating a suitable analytical procedure for low test item concentrations in water, it was considered that the water solubility would be assessed using visual appraisal, based on the flask method.

Any other information on results incl. tables

Preliminary Test

The sample concentrations, observations and solution pH are shown in the following table:

Sample Concentration (g/L) Observations Solution pH
1 1.04 Cloudy white solution with excess test item present as sediment and adhered to the sides of the flask. 5.5
2 9.95 Clear, colorless solution with excess test item present as sediment on the surface and a small amount suspended within the solution 7
3 101 Opaque white liquid, with excess test item present as sediment and adhered to the sides of the flask. 7.1

Result: Less than 1.04 g/L at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C.

Definitive Test

The sample concentrations, observations and solution pH are shown in the following table:

Sample Concentration (g/L) Observations Solution pH
4 1 Cloudy white solution, with excess test item present. 4.9
5 0.101 Clear, colorless solution, with excess test item present as sediment and at the surface. 4.6
6 1.04 x 10-2 Clear, colorless solution, with excess test item present as sediment and at the surface. 5
7 1.49 x 10-3 Clear, colorless solution, with no excess test item observed. No Tyndall beam observed. 4.8

Overall result: In the range 1.49 x 10-3 and 1.04 x 10-2 g/L of solution at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The water solubility of the test item has been determined to be in the range 1.49 x 10-3 to 1.04 x 10-2 g/L of solution at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C.
Executive summary:

In the range 1.49 x 10-3 to 1.04 x 10-2 g/L of solution at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C, by visual appraisal, based on the flask method, designed to be compatible with Method A6 Water Solubility of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 105 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 27 July 1995.
