Any other information on results incl. tables

Preliminary test:

Since the test substance was of a very fine particle size, not all undissolved test substance was removed by centrifugation, and therefore the sample was also filtrated. However, also with filtration not all undissolved test substance was removed (determined using the Tyndall effect), so the determined water solubility during the preliminary test (7.93 x 10E-4 g/l; only Component 2 was detected in the sample solution) was an overestimation.

Main study:

Validation:

The linearity of the detector with respect to concentration was assessed over the nominal contrentration range of 0 to 25.0 mg/l. This was satisfactory with a correlation coefficient of >= 0.997 being obtained when assessing the three major components present in the test material on an individual basis.

Recovery of analysis of the sample procedure was assessed and proved adequate for the test (mean recovery 80.4 -90.4% for 0.25 mg/l nominal concentration and 74.0 -96.2% for 0.10 mg/l nominal concentration).

Concentrations have not been corrected for recovery of analysis.

Samples:

Overall, for all components and for both flow rates, the water solubility was determined to be < 1.0 x 10E-4 g/l at 20.0 +/-0.5°C (pH 6.3 -7.0). The incomplete removal of all excess, un-dissolved test material by the filtration step applied to the sample clean up was confirmed to have no significant impact on the test. This was since any remaining contamination of the sample solutions still resulted in a concentration below that for which the recovery procedure had been succesfully validated, the nominal concentration subsequently used as the reported limit value of solubility.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

Interpretation of results (migrated information): insoluble (< 0.1 mg/L)
The water solubility of the test substance was determined to be < 1.0 x 10E-4 g/l at 20.0 +/-0.5°C (pH 6.3 -7.0), monitoring the three significant components of the test material.
