Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

Water solubility [3-(chlorodimethylsilyl)propyl methacrylate]: not relevant

Water Solubility [3-[hydroxy(dimethyl)silyl]propyl methacrylate]: Above approximately 30 mg/L condensation reactions can occur over time, limiting the concentration dissolved in water. The calculated solubility is 330 mg/L at 20°C (QSAR)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The requirement to conduct a water solubility study for the substance is waived on the basis that it hydrolyses very rapidly to form 3-[hydroxy(dimethyl)silyl]propyl methacrylate and hydrochloric acid.

The silanol hydrolysis product, 3-[hydroxy(dimethyl)silyl]propyl methacrylate, may undergo condensation reactions in water, these become important above approximately 30 mg/L and can limit the concentration dissolved in water. For details, see the overall physicochemical properties discussion.

The water solubility of the silanol hydrolysis product 3-[hydroxy(dimethyl)silyl]propyl methacrylate has been calculated using a validated QSAR method to be 330 mg/L. However, the saturation concentration may in reality be limited by the formation of less soluble dimer rather than the solubility of the monomer itself.
