Description of key information

The test substance, Ethylbenzene, manuf. of, distn. residues, distn. lights. was analysed for water solubility to OECD 105 by the flask method.Quantification of three solutions of the sample was performed at 264 nm. The mean concentration of a saturated solution of Ethylbenzene, manuf. of, distn. residues, distn. lights. was found to be 92.7 mg/dm3. The change in concentration for a saturated solution of Ethylbenzene, manuf. of, distn. residues, distn. lights. over a 3 day period was found to be 2.1% max. This is less than the test criterion of less than or equal to 15% change.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Water solubility:
92.7 mg/L
at the temperature of:
22 °C

Additional information

The test substance, Ethylbenzene, manuf. of, distn. residues, distn. lights. was analysed for water solubility to OECD 105 by the flask method. Hence, the test meets the criterion and is satisfactory. The mean concentration of a saturated solution of Ethylbenzene, manuf. of, distn. residues, distn. lights. was found to be 92.7 mg/dm3. The test substance is slightly soluble to moderately soluble in water.
