Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

EC number: 276-431-5 | CAS number: 72162-23-3 The high-boiling fraction separated by distillation from the products obtained from the reaction of nitric acid with cyclododecanol and cyclododecanone. Composed primarily of dodecanedioic acid, undecanedioic acid, and sebacic acid.

Description of key information
Corfree® M1 has some smaller carboxylic acids that are slightly soluble in water, but the higher carboxylic acids are less soluble due to the increasing hydrophobic alkyl chain.
For a complex substance as the test substance, REACH end-point specific guidance prescribes the flask method at (at least) two nominal concentrations combined with a non-discriminating analytical method.
Flask method was performed at 5 loading rates (see table below). At each loading rate, 3 vessels were prepared by weighing test substance into the glass vessel and adding double distilled water. The content of each vessel was stirred for 24, 48 or 72 hours at 20.5 ± 0.6°C on a magnetic stirring device. As the blank, 200 ml water was stirred for 72 hours. After stirring, the water mixtures were filtered through a 150 mm diameter blue ribbon, 583/3 paper filter (Whatman, Germany) and analysed. The pH of each filtrate (except for the blank) was measured.
Additional test: 1000 ml double distilled water was added to 1.069 mg of test substance in a glass vessel. After stirring for 72 hours at 20.5 ± 0.6°C on a magnetic stirring device, the mixture was checked visually for undissolved material.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Using the flask method at 20°C and 5 loading rates followed by TOC analysis, the substance concentration in the water mixture was determined to be:
4.7 mg/l at a loading rate of 5 mg/l
38 mg/l at a loading rate of 50 mg/l
181 mg/l at a loading rate of 500 mg/l
530 mg/l at a loading rate of 5000 mg/l
3731 mg/l at a loading rate of 50000 mg/l
In all test mixtures (including 1 mg/L nominal), undissolved material was observed visually.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
