The octanol-water partition coefficient (log Pow) of the test substance 2-chloro-p-phenylenediamine was determined to be 0.44 at 20 -25 degC. This value indicates that the substance 2-chloro-p-phenylenediamine is hydrophilic in nature which is also supported by its solubility in water.
Water Solubility
The water solubiliity of 2-chloro-p-phenylenediamine was estimated by using WSKOW v1.42 method of EPI Suite.The water solubility of 2-chloro-p- phenylenediamine was estimated to be 49610 mg/L at 25 degC, indicating that the substance is very soluble in water.
Surface tension
In accordance with column 2 of Annex VII of the REACH regulation, the study need only be conducted if surface activity is a desired property of the chemical. The chemical 2-chloro-p-phenylenediamine is an aniline derivative used as a hair and fur dye, photographic developer, in photochemical measurements, chemical intermediate in the manufacturing of dyes, antioxidants and rubber accelerators. For these uses, surface activity is not a desired property and hence this end point was considered for waiver.
Flash point
The flash point of 2-chloro-p-phenylenediamine was predicted using the ACD/Labs Percepta Platform - PhysChem Module.The flash point of 2-chloro-p- phenylenediamine was estimated to be 127.9±21.8°C.
Autoflammability
The study does not need to be conducted because the substance 2-chloro-p-phenylenediamine (CAS No. 615-66-7) has melting point 63°C which was less than 160 degree C. Therefore this end point considered for waiver.
Flammability
The study does not need to be conducted because the substance is a solid, as the 2-chloro-p-phenylenediamine has NFPA rating 0 and the flash point is 127.9 degree C which is very high. As per the CLP regulation the chemical which has flash point >than 60 degree C was considered to be non-flammable. Based on this 2-chloro-p-phenylenediamine was considered to be non-flammable supported by low NFPA rating.
Explosiveness
In accordance with column 2 of Annex VII of the REACH regulation, the study is scientifically unjustified since there are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule of 2-chloro-p-phenylenediamine. Thus, the chemical 2-chloro-p-phenylenediamine is not likely to be explosive and is considered to be "Non explosive" for the purpose of chemical safety assessment.
Oxidising properties
The study does not need to be conducted because there are no chemical groups present in the molecule which are associated with oxidising properties and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied.
Viscosity
This end point was considered for waiver since viscosity is an inherent property of a liquid that offers resistance to its flow and 2-chloro-p-phenylenediamine is a solid substance and hence this testing was considered scientifically unjustified for 2-chloro-p-phenylenediamine.
