Any other information on results incl. tables

Preliminary test

The preliminary estimate of water solubility was 12.1 g/L.

Definitive test

The concentration (g/L) of test material in the sample solutions is shown in the following table:

Mean concentration:  11.6 g/l at 20.0 ± 0.5ºC

Range:     11.5 to 11.7 g/L

Validation

The linearity of the detector response with respect to concentration was assessed over the nominal concentration range of 0 to 400 mg/L.  This was satisfactory with a correlation coefficient of 1.000 being obtained.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The water solubility of the test material has been determined to be 11.6 g/L of solution at 20.0 ± 0.5°C.
