Additional information

Several literature sources were available and provide water solubility values for the substance, ranging between 207 and 538 mg/L at 20-25°C; pH is not specified in any source. Values at temperatures other than ambient (10 to 90°C) are also presented. The BUA report, considered as a reliable source and including the highest, i.e. the worst-case value was retained as key.
