Justification for type of information:
1. HYPOTHESIS FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
Due to sharing similar structural, physical and chemical properties to CMS, synthetic amorphous silica is considered appropriate for read-across purposes.
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
read-across source
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
read-across source
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
read-across source
Key result
Water solubility:
ca. 260 mg/L
Temp.:
20 °C
pH:
