Preliminary test results

 

	0.1 g in 0.1 mL	0.1 g in 0.5 mL	0.1 g in 1 mL	0.1 g in 2 mL	0.1 g in 10 mL	0.1 g in 100 mL	0.1 g in 1000 mL
Approximate solubility in g/L	<1000	1000 to 200	200 to 100	100 to 50	50 to 10	10 to 1	<1
Dissolved (y) not dissolved (n)	n	n	n	n	n	n	n

 

The preliminary results showed that the solubility of the sample was less than 0.1 g/L.

Based on the preliminary test, the column elution method was selected for the final test.

 

The solubility was low, therefore more time was required to attempt to dissolve the substance. The substance was left for 96 hours at 20 °C while being shaken in an incubator.

Since the test substance had not dissolved after 96 hours it was considered insoluble.

Main test results

Below is a summary of the details of the final 5 samples taken at each flow rate. These samples did not differ from each other by more than 30% or there were 5 consecutive samples below the limit of quantification so no further fractions were collected.

 

Date/Time	Temp (°C)	Column A			Column B
		Flow Rate (mL/min)	Time (min)	Calculated Conc. (mg/L)	Flow rate (mL/min)	Time (min)	Calculated Conc. (mg/L)
18/11/17 10:20	20 ± 1	1	40	< 0.16mg/l	2	40	< 0.16mg/l
18/11/17 10:40	20 ± 1	1	No Sample at time point		2	60	< 0.16mg/l

18/11/17 12:20	20 ± 1	1	160	< 0.16mg/l
18/11/17 12:40	20 ± 1	1	No Sample at time point
18/11/17 13:00	20 ± 1	1	200	< 0.16mg/l

 

The concentration of the sample was shown to be below the limit of quantification at both flow rates.

Conclusions:

The water solubility of Monoesters of C16 and C18 (branched and linear) fatty acids with decan-1-ol is <0.16 mg/L

Executive summary:

This method is in accordance with the OECD guideline test number 105, GC-MS was used to determine concentrations of Monoesters of C16 and C18 (branched and linear) fatty acids with decan-1-ol. The concentration of the sample was shown to be below the limit of quantification.

Description of key information

Water solubility: < 0.16 mg/L at 20 °C (OECD Guideline 105, column elution method)

Additional information

The water solubility of the test item is below the detection limit of the analytical method (0.16 mg/L). The test item appears insoluble in water.
