Type of information:

experimental study

Adequacy of study:

key study

Study period:

24.5.-11.9.2014

Reliability:

1 (reliable without restriction)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

guideline study

Remarks:

The study was performed by following the recommended methods (Method A6 Water Solubility of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 105 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 27 July 1995) and GLP.

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

EU Method A.6 (Water Solubility)

Deviations:

yes

Remarks:

The flask method was used even though the method recommends the column elution method for test items with a solubility < 10 mg/L.

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

OECD Guideline 105 (Water Solubility)

Deviations:

yes

Remarks:

The flask method was used even though the method recommends the column elution method for test items with a solubility < 10 mg/L.

GLP compliance:

yes (incl. QA statement)

Remarks:

Certificate is included in the study report

Type of method:

flask method

Water solubility:

< 0.51 µg/L

Temp.:

20 °C

pH:

>= 6.24 - <= 6.49

Remarks on result:

other: T = 20.0 ± 0.5 °C

Details on results:

All the sample solutions' analyte concentrations in the main test were below the detection limit of 5.10 x 10^-7 g/L (20.0 ± 0.5 °C).

Conclusions:

Interpretation of results (migrated information): insoluble (< 0.1 mg/L)

During the preliminary study the water solubility of the test item was estimated to be < 0.005 mg/L. Method A6 Water solubility (440/2008/EC) recommends that the column elution method should be used if the water solubility is < 1x10^-2 g/L. However, since the substance is insoluble in organic solvents, the column elution method could not be applied.

In the main test using the flask method, it was found that the signals of the sample solutions were below the limit of detection (LOD = 5.10 x 10^-7 g/L). The substance is therefore very poorly soluble in water.

Executive summary:

The water solubility of the substance was determined to be less than 5.10 x 10^-7 g/L of solution at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C, using the flask method, designed to be compatible with Method A6 Water Solubility of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 105 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 27 July 1995.

Remarks on result:

other: T = 20.0 ± 0.5 °C

Details on results:

Based on the titanium concentration in the samples of the main test the results are the following:
Mean Concentration : 4.66 x 10^-6 g/L at 20.0 ± 0.5 ºC
Range : 5.62 x 10^-7 to 7.43 x 10^-6 g/L
Standard Deviation : 3.62 x 10^-6
Overall Result : ≤ 7.43 x 10^-6 g/L (as titanium) at 20.0 ± 0.5 ºC.

The titanium concentration (g/L) in the sample solutions is shown in the following table:

Sample Number	Time Shaken at ~ 30 ⁰C (hours)	Time Equilibrated at 20 ⁰C (hours)	Titanium concentration (g/L)	Mean titanium concentration (g/L)	Solution pH

Conclusions:

Interpretation of results (migrated information): insoluble (< 0.1 mg/L)

During the preliminary study the water solubility of the test item was estimated to be < 0.005 mg/L.

However, since the substance is insoluble in organic solvents, the column elution method could not be applied.

The water solubility of the test item in the main test using the flask method has been determined to be less than or equal to 7.43 x 10^-6 g/L of solution at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C. The substance is therefore very poorly soluble in water.

Executive summary:

The water solubility of the substance was determined to be less than or equal to 7.43 x 10 ^-6 g/L (as titanium) of solution at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C, using the flask method, designed to be compatible with Method A6 Water Solubility of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 105 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 27 July 1995.

Additional information

During the preliminary study the water solubility of the sodium form test item was estimated to be < 0.005 mg/L. Method A6 Water solubility (440/2008/EC) recommends that the column elution method should be used if the water solubility is < 1x10^-2 g/L. However, since the substance is insoluble in organic solvents, the column elution method could not be applied.

 

Using the flask method, the sample solution signals in the main test with the sodium form were below the limit of detection (LOD = 5.10 x 10^-7 g/L). Similarly, the water solubility of the sodium/hydrogen form was determined to be less than or equal to 7.43 x 10^-6 g/L. The substance is therefore very poorly soluble in water.
