Hence, the test substance was considered to be essentially non-volatile.
- Executive summary:
A study was conducted to determine the Henry's law constant of the test substance according to the water solubility and the critical micelle concentration. Under the study conditions, the estimated Henry's law constant based on solubility in water was calculated to be <1.1E-11 atm-m3/mol or 1.1E-06 Pa m3/moL and the Henry's law constant based on critical micelle concentration was calculated to be <6.4E-09 atm-m3/mol or 6.4E-04 Pa m3/moL, respectively. Hence, the test substance was considered to be essentially non-volatile (Breckelmans, 2012).
Reference
The molecular weight of the test substance was calculated to be (73.803/100) x 399.99 + (25.300/100) x 368.04 + (0.132/100) x 396.09 = 344.6 g/mol.
- Using a vapour pressure of 1.5E-03 Pa = 1.5E-08 atm (at 20°C) determined during NOTOX project 499392, using a water solubility of 455 g/L = 1.32E03 mol/m3 supplied by the sponsor, the Henry’s law constant of the test substance was estimated to be <1.1E-11 atm.m3/mol.
- Using a critical micelle concentration of 0.81 g/L = 2.35 mol/m3 supplied by the sponsor, the Henry’s law constant of the test substance was estimated to be <6.4E-09 atm.m3/mol (corresponding to 6.4E-04 Pa m3/mol).
If the Henry’s law constant is 3.0E-07 atm.m3/mol, the test substance is less volatile than water and the concentration will increase when water evaporates. The test substance is considered essentially non-volatile.

Additional information
A study was conducted to determine the Henry's law constant of the test substance according to the water solubility and the critical micelle concentration. Under the study conditions, the estimated Henry's law constant based on solubility in water was calculated to be <1.1E-11 atm-m3/mol or 1.1E-06 Pa m3/moL and the Henry's law constant based on critical micelle concentration was calculated to be <6.4E-09 atm-m3/mol or 6.4E-04 Pa m3/moL, respectively. Hence, the test substance was considered to be essentially non-volatile (Breckelmans, 2012).
