- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 105 (Water Solubility)
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- For surface active substances the critical micelle concentration (CMC) method is used as an alternative to the water solubility. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) is determined by measuring the surface tension of test substance solutions at different test substance concentration. For surface active substances which form micelles in solution, the surface tension decreases with increasing concentration until the CMC is reached. At concentrations above the CMC, the surface tension remains constant. The CMC is determined from a plot of the surface tension versus the logarithm of the test substance concentration.

- Remarks on result:
- other: Since a completely dissolved solution was not observed at any of the nominal concentrations, the surface tension could not be measured. Based on these results, the CMC of Amides, C12, N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl) was specified as < 1 mg/L.
- Details on results:
- Since a completely dissolved solution was not observed at any of the tested nominal concentrations, the surface tension could not be measured. Lower nominal concentrations cannot be used for this test. Based on these results, the CMC of amides, C12, N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl) was specified as < 1 mg/L.
- Conclusions:
- Based on these results, the CMC of the test substance was specified as < 1 mg/L at 20°C.
- Executive summary:
A study was conducted to determine the water solubility of amides, C12, N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl) using CMC method according to GLP. Under the conditions of the study, the CMC of the test substance was considered to be <1 mg/L at 20°C.

- The chromatographic profile of the test item in the standard solutions consisted of one peak, where as the water solubility samples consisted of several peaks. The water solubility was calculated based on the main compound peak.
Due to the occurrence of several peaks in the samples, the test was carried out at two loading rates.
Saturation of water was achieved after 24 hours of shaking, resulting in a solubility of 32.3 mg/L ± 2.3 mg/L at the loading rate 1 g/L and 47.6 mg/L ± 4.6 mg/L at the loading rate 10 g/L at 20 °C. - Conclusions:
- Under the study condictions, saturation of water was achieved after 24 hours of shaking, resulting in a solubilityof 32.3 mg/L ± 2.3 mg/L at the loading rate of 1 g/L and 47.6 mg/L ± 4.6 mg/L at the loading rate of 10 g/Lat 20 °C
- Executive summary:
A study was conducted to determine the solubility of N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)dodecanamide in water according to OECD Guideline 105 ( shake-flask method). Vessels containing water and the test substance were shaken for approximately 24 hours, 48 hours and 72 hours at about 30°C. Afterwards, the samples were equilibrated for another 24 hours at 20°C. An aliquot of the samples was filtrated with a 0.22 µm PTFE and a 0.22 µm nylon filter, diluted1:1 (v:v) with acetonitrileand analyzedby HPLC with UV-detection. The chromatographic profile of the test item in the standard solutions consisted of one peak, where as the water solubility samples consisted of several peaks. The water solubility was calculated based on the main compound peak. Due to the occurrence of several peaks in the samples, the test was carried out at two loading rates. Saturation of water was achieved after 24 hours of shaking, resulting in a solubilityof 32.3 mg/L ± 2.3 mg/L at the loading rate of 1 g/L and 47.6 mg/L ± 4.6 mg/L at the loading rate of 10 g/Lat 20°C (Schöneck, 2022).

Description of key information
The water solubility was determined according to OECD Guideline 105 (Schöneck, 2022).
The water solubility was also determined earlier using the CMC method (Baltussen, 2012) and by estimation using the WSKOWWIN v1.42 and WATERNT v1.01 programs of EPIWEB v 4.1.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Water solubility:
- 48 mg/L
- at the temperature of:

Additional information
In the study conducted according to OECD Guideline 105, saturation of water was achieved after 24 hours of shaking, resulting in a solubilityof 32.3 mg/L ± 2.3 mg/L at the loading rate of 1 g/L and 47.6 mg/L ± 4.6 mg/L at the loading rate of 10 g/L at 20°C (Schöneck, 2022).
The estimated CMC of the substance was <1 mg/L at 20°C ± 0.5°C.
The estimated water solubility using the WSKOWWIN v1.42 and WATERNT v1.01 programs (EPIWEB v 4.1) was 49.91 and 620.04 mg/L, respectively.
For risk assessment purposes, the water solubility at the high loading rate was selected (48 mg/L).
