Conclusions:
The dissociation constant of the test item was determined to be 7.28 at 25 °C.
Executive summary:

A study according to OECD 112 was performed to determine the dissociation constant of the test item. Using a conductometric method, test item solutions with different concentrations were analysed. The conductivity of these solutions was measured and based on it the dissociation constant of the test item at 25 °C was determined to be 7.28.

Description of key information
