Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Administrative data

Endpoint:
surface tension
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because based on structure, surface activity is not expected or cannot be predicted
the study does not need to be conducted because surface activity is not a desired property of the material
the study does not need to be conducted because water solubility is below 1 mg/L at 20°C
Cross-reference

Key result
Water solubility:
< 0.1 mg/L
Conc. based on:
test mat. (dissolved fraction)
Remarks:
Result calculated based on dissolved Y measurements.
Temp.:
20 °C
pH:
6
Remarks on result:
other: Mean at flow rates of 12.5 mL/h and 25 mL/h.
Details on results:
Results were validated by:
- Linearity validation: The analysis showed a good linearity of the method (r > 0.99).
- Accuracy validation: Results in dilution mixture showed a good accuracy which indicates acceptable data (recoveries ranged between 70 and 110%).
- Repeatability validation: The results indicated a good precision of the data (RSD < 20%).
- Specificity: The intensity (CPS) of blank samples measured was negligible.
- Limit of quantification: 0.015 mg Y/L
- Limit of detection: 0.005 mg Y/L

Results of the preliminary test with milliQ water and at pH 6 were:

Conclusions:
The water solubility of yttrium trifluoride was determined to be < 0.1 mg/L at pH 6 and at 20°C. This result was calculated from the measured yttrium content in water which was < 0.03 mg/L (column elution method).
