Observations
During the study, undissolved test material was observed. Swelling and agglutination of the test substance in ultrapure water was observed. After filtration, the solution was clear. In order to verify this, the turbidity was measured in the filtered samples.

Temperature
The temperature in the thermostatically controlled water bath was monitored by a thermo data logger (Testo 175-T2, Testo AG, Leutkirch, Germany). The mean temperature was 20.6 ± 0.2 °C.

Monitoring oxygen amount
During the experimental performance of the test, the amount of oxygen within the acrylic glass box was monitored with a MICRO IV oxygen sensor prior and after sampling. The displayed oxygen values (in %) were always at about 0 %.

pH values
The pH in test item loaded vessels was in the range of 8.3 – 8.5, whereas the pH in method blanks ranged from 6.6 – 6.8. Solution pH was measured directly
in the test vessel using an inoLab 9430 equipped with SenTix 940-3 (pH) electrodes from WTW (Weilheim, Germany). Measurements were taken after readings had stabilized and waiting for an additional minute. Two electrodes were used to exclude cross contaminations:
One for the method blanks and the other one only for the solutions in the test item loaded vessels. A calibration of the pH meter was performed every workweek and the device was verified every working day with commercially available certified pH buffer solutions (pH 9.21, lot no. 1Z196D, expiry date 2016-07-15; pH 7.00, lot no. 1Z204I, expiry date 2016-07-23; pH 4.01, lot no. 1Z205F, expiry date 2016.07-25; pH 2.00, lot no. 1Z244F, expiry date 2016-09-01; all obtained from Mettler Toledo, Urdorf, Switzerland).

Turbidity
The turbidity was measured after filtration to verify that only dissolved strontium concentrations would get measured. The turbidity was always <1 NTU, indicating that no undissolved material was left after the filtration step.

ICP-OES measurement
Strontium levels of method blanks were always below the limit of detection (LOD: 3.25 – 6.47 μg Sr/L). Test samples were analysed within one day after sampling.

Constant strontium concentrations according to the study guideline OECD 105 as well as the Regulation 440/2008/EC A.6 were measured during the study from day 1 to day 3. Therefore, the water solubility of the test item is calculated by the Sr concentrations of all samples from day 1 – day 3:

Calculation of the water solubility of test item

Under the conditions of this test (under exclusion of CO2 and O2, under inert argon gas; flask method; loadings of 200.009 g/L and 200.020 g/L in vessel 1 and 2), a solubility equilibrium was observed during the testing (days 1 – 3). The mean amount of dissolved strontium, during the test at 20.0 ± 1.0°C is 8.47 ± 0.54 g Sr/L (determined as dissolved strontium, separated by filtration from undissolved test item; standard deviation is calculated from all samples days 1 - 3). This corresponds to calculated dissolved strontium neodecanoate of 45.07 ± 2.86 g/L. The pH in test item loaded vessels was in the range of 8.3 – 8.5, whereas the pH in method blanks ranged from 6.6 – 6.8
