Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Key result
Type:
log Pow
Remarks on result:
not determinable
Remarks:
The estimation method was applied for the determination of the Pow of R507-2. However, the partition coefficient (n-octanol/ water), Pow, of R507-2 could not be calculated as a quotient of the n-octanol solubility and the water solubility due to the limited solubility in both water and n­ octanol. Due to the nature of the test substance, an alternative method cannot be used.
Details on results:
Preliminary test
The content of test substance dissolved in the n-octanol sample was < 2.68 x 10-3 g/L

n-Octanol solubility
No test substance was detected in any of the sub-samples taken from the flasks after 24, 48 and 72 hours of stirring, respectively.

In order to estimate the n-octanol solubility, the limit of detection (LOD) was determined. From a chromatogram of a 0.05 mg/I test substance solution the noise level was determined to be 35 µAU and the peak height was 330 µAU. Using these values, the limit of detection was 0.016 mg/L. Taking a dilution factor of 67 into account this corresponds to a LOD of 1.1 mg/L in end solution.

No test substance was detected in the pre-treated samples from the blank octanol mixture. The n-octanol solubility of R507-2 is < 1.1 x 10-3 g/L at 19.9 ± 0.6 °C.

Water solubility
Information on the water solubility of the test substance was < 7 x 10-5 g/L.

Conclusions:
The estimation method was applied for the determination of the Pow of R507-2. However, the partition coefficient (n-octanol/ water), Pow, of R507-2 could not be calculated as a quotient of the n-octanol solubility and the water solubility due to the limited solubility in both water and n­ octanol. Due to the nature of the test substance, an alternative method cannot be used.
Executive summary:

The estimation method was applied for the determination of the Pow of R507-2. However, the partition coefficient (n-octanol/ water), Pow, of R507-2 could not be calculated as a quotient of the n-octanol solubility and the water solubility due to the limited solubility in both water and n­ octanol. Due to the nature of the test substance, an alternative method cannot be used.
