Results and discussion

Water solubility
Water solubility:
ca. 2 - 15.5 other: mg TOC/L
Temp.:

Details on results:
Solubility data relate to loadings of 2.5 - 50 mg oil/L (see Remarks on results below).



Any other information on results incl. tables

Water solubility (as water-accommodated fraction) of Naphthalene Oil at 20 °C

in test medium (daphnia) at various loadings (closed system):

Based on measured data (see tables below), the oil-related TOC values were approximately

  • 2.0 - 2.5 mg/L (at 2.5 mg oil/L),
  • 5.5 - 6.0 mg/L (at 10 mg oil/L),
  • 15 - 16 mg/L (at 50 mg oil/L)
