Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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:
not specified
Adequacy of study:
weight of evidence
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
data from handbook or collection of data
Justification for type of information:
Data comes from an online compilation using secondary data sources. There is no experimental study reference, however data is cited in the database as peer reviewed, and recommended in ECHA Guidance on information requirements. Therefore it is considered as reliable, but with restrictions due to lack of details.
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
reference to other study
Principles of method if other than guideline:
No data
Specific details on test material used for the study:
no data

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results: soluble (1000-10000 mg/L)
Executive summary:

The HSDB database provides, as secondary source, some physico-chemical properties. A water solubility of 3500 mg/L at 21°C is reported for cineole (no data on purity, nor method, nor pH).

Executive summary:

The HSDB database provides, as secondary source, some physico-chemical properties. A water solubility of 1590 mg/L at 25°C is reported for linalool (no data on purity, nor method, nor pH).

Description of key information

Major components of the substance (about 80% of the composition) ranging between 1590 and 3500 mg/L at ambient temperature (literature data).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

No study was conducted on the oil itself.

The test item is a natural complex substance (NCS). It is a UVCB with constituents of different solubility. Therefore the global solubility of the oil will depend on the loading rate (with varying ratio of constituents in the dissolved phase).

Even if the substance is a mixture of several constituents, three of them represent about 80% of that mixture. Therefore a Weight of Evidence approach was considered and the water solubility of the major constituents of the substance was gathered (literature data).

Literature provided data for three major constituents of the substance:

- linalool WS ca 1590 mg/L at 25°C,

- camphor WS ca 1600mg/L at 25°C,

- cineol 1,8 WS ca 3500 mg/L at 25°C.

As no CSA is required for the tonnage band of concern, no key value was retained (nor calculated weighted WS nor worst-case).
