Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
study well documented, meets generally accepted scientific principles, acceptable for assessment
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
no data
GLP compliance:
not specified
Type of method:
other: not indicated
Specific details on test material used for the study:

Key result
Remarks on result:
other: The test substance is hygroscopic
Details on results:
Very soluble in water.

The test substance is hygroscopic.The critical humidity is 38-40 % at 25 °C. This means that the product normally absorbs moisture and becomes wet and dissolves if exposed to air at normal weather conditions.
Conclusions:
The substance is very soluble in water (> 10000 mg/L).

Description of key information

The substance is very soluble in water.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Water solubility:
100 g/L
