Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

The water solubility of the registered substance was found to be 73 mg/l. The hydrolysis study is not required for substances which are poorly soluble in water, in accordance with REACH Annex VIII, Column 2. This waiver is supported by a read-across study conducted on silicone dioxide, which is structurally similar to the registered substance. Silicone dioxide did not rapidly hydrolyse in the study.

Additional information

The water solubility of the registered substance was found to be 73 mg/l. The hydrolysis study is not required for substances which are poorly soluble in water, in accordance with REACH Annex VIII, Column 2. This waiver is supported by a read-across study conducted on silicone dioxide, which is structurally similar to the registered substance. Silicone dioxide did not rapidly hydrolyse in the study. The structure of both silicic acid, aluminium, sodium salt and silicic acid, aluminium, calcium, sodium salt are macromolecular skeletons of silicon and oxygen with the metal cations binding ionically to negatively charged oxygens in the structure. In the silicic acid, aluminium, calcium, sodium salt the metal cations bind ionically to negatively charged oxygens in the structure. The inclusion of calcium salts to the structure of silicic acid, aluminium, sodium salt would not be expected to change the behaviour of the substance in water.
