Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusions:
The solubility is very pH dependant with precipitation at neutral or alkaline pH resulting in very low water solubility expected under environmental conditions.
The substance supplied is acidic.

Description of key information

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Water solubility:
100 g/L
at the temperature of:
20 °C

Additional information

The substance is soluble until pH 4, then it becomes sparingly soluble and at a pH >9 is insoluble.
