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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

- Endpoint:
- water solubility
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- weight of evidence
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- data from handbook or collection of data
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- other: noguideline available (Handbook data)
- Remarks on result:
- not determinable
- Remarks:
- Na2O reacts violently with water. This produces sodium hydroxide.The interaction is likely to be violently exothermic with water.
- Conclusions:
- The substance is hydrolytically unstable and reacts violently with water producing sodium hydroxide.

Description of key information
As the substance is hydrolytically unstable (reacts violently with water), the study cannot be conducted.
For the purpose of the risk assessment, the NaOH solubility is referenced as key value and the REACH dossier value is used (100g/100g H2O at 25°C).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Water solubility:
- 1 000 g/L
- at the temperature of:
- 25 °C
Additional information
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.
