Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Dissociation constant [substance]: Not relevant due to very rapid hydrolysis in contact with water
Dissociation constant [silanol hydrolysis product]: pKa approximately 11
Dissociation constant [acrylic acid]: pKa 4.25 at 25°C
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The requirement to test the substance for dissociation constant is waived because in contact with water the substance hydrolyses very rapidly. The hydrolysis products in this case are tris(1-methylethyl)silanol and acrylic acid. There are no reliable measured data for the dissociation constant of tris(1-methylethyl)silanol. The typical dissociation constants for the hydroxyl protons of silanols are available from studies in other silanols. It is appropriate to read-across dissociation constant data for tris(1-methylethyl)silanol from trimethylsilanol. This suggests that silanols are not expected to undergo significant dissociation within the range of pH relevant in the environment or in vivo. Trimethylsilanol is reported in a secondary source to have a dissociation constant of approximately 11.
Acrylic acid has a reported dissociation constant of 4.25 at 25°C (CRC 2010).
