Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- water solubility
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- Testing was conducted between 30 September 2009 and 05 November 2009.
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.6 (Water Solubility)
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Type of method:
- flask method
- Remarks:
- The determination was carried out using the flask method, Method A6 Water Solubility of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008.
- Water solubility:
- 63 - 65 other: %w/w
- Temp.:
- 20 °C
- pH:
- > 10.1 - < 10.7
- Details on results:
- Please see section Remarks on results including tables and figures.
- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results: very soluble (> 10000 mg/L)
The water solubility of the test material has been determined. The results are shown in the following table:
Test temperatureWater solubilityTypical solution pH
30.0°C In the range 64.6 % w/w to 67.6 % w/w10.7
20.0°C In the range 63.0 % w/w to 65.0 % w/w10.1
10.0°C In the range 62.8 % w/w to 64.9 % w/w10.6
Overall, the effect of temperature over the range 10 to 30°Chas been considered not to have had a significant influence on the observed solubility of the test material.
Additionally, an assessment of the solubility of the test material over the environmentally relevant pH range of 4 to 9 indicated observed solubilities and final solution pH's similar to those obtained using unbuffered water. Thus, it can be anticipated that the water solubility of the test material over the pH range 4 to 9 would be constant, essentially due to the low buffering activities seen in the environment.
This study is conducted according to an appropriate guideline and under the conditions of GLP and therefore the study is considered to be acceptable and to adequately satisfy both the guideline requirement and the regulatory requirement as a key study for this endpoint. - Executive summary:
The water solubility of the test material was determined by visual assessment using a flask method, based on Method A6 Water Solubility of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008. The results are shown in the following table:
