Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The data set on water solubility is not totally consistent. It is proposed to use the water solubility value as reported in the SIDS dossier, 3600 mg/l at 20 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Water solubility:
3 600 mg/L
at the temperature of:
20 °C

Additional information

Compilation of water solubility data at 20 °C:

Source   Solubility as reported  Data interpretation acc. to IUCLID5
Sax 1984  3000 mg/l soluble:  1000 - 10000 mg/l
 Verschueren 1983  100 mg/l slightly soluble: 0.1 - 100 mg/l; moderately soluble: 100 - 1000 mg/l
 SIDS dossier 2003  3600 mg/l * soluble: 1000 - 10000 mg/l 
 Dilling 1977 3370 mg/l    soluble: 1000 - 10000 mg/l 

* Water solubility of 3600 mg/l also given in EINECS.

The data set on water solubility is not totally consistent. While Verschueren reports a water solubility of only 100 mg/l, three other sources report data in the range of 3000 to 3600 mg/l.

It is proposed to use the water solubility value as reported in the SIDS dossier, 3600 mg/l at 20 °C, which is also the water solubility stated in the EINECS.
