Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusions:
1,4-Butanediol will not dissociate in the pH range 5-9.

Description of key information

Dissociation constant (pKa): 15.62, not expected to dissociate

Key value for chemical safety assessment

pKa at 20°C:
15.62

Additional information

1,4 -Butanediol does not contain any ionizable functional groups and significant dissociation is therefore not expected as evidenced by a dissociation constant (pKa) of 15.62 at 25°C calculated by SPARC Online Calculation method (ISP, 2009) and 14.5 as reported in a reliable authoritative secondary source.
