Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Acetalization product between glucose and C20/22 (even numbered) alcohol” is expected to have a very low solubility as a whole; its measured water solubility is < 1 mg/l.
According to published and estimated data on the water solubility of APG C20/22 and C20/22 alcohols, the UVCB as a whole (glucosides and alcohols parts) is expected to have a very low water solubility (around 1 μg/l)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Water solubility:
1 mg/L
at the temperature of:
23 °C

Additional information

Acetalization product between glucose and C20/22 (even numbered) alcohol” is expected to have a very low water solubility as a whole; its measured water solubility is < 1 mg/l.

Published data on alcohols (1) showed a very low water solubility for C18 alcohol of 0.0011 mg/l (SIDS dossier on 1-octadecanol, 1993b; Budavari, 1996). The water solubility of alcohols decreases with increase of the length of carbon chain, so the water solubility of “Alcohols block” should be reasonably around 1 μg/l.

Furthermore, low estimated values of the water solubility of C20 and C22 mono and di-glucosides were determined by EPISUITE:

- C20 monoglucoside : Log kow (KOWIN estimate) = 6.83 ; water solubility at 25°C (estimate from Log kow) = 0.001885 mg/l

- C22 monoglucoside : Log kow (KOWIN estimate) = 7.81 ; water solubility at 25°C (estimate from Log kow) = 0.0001811 mg/l

Mixture of mono C20/22 glucosides = 12.6% of the registered substance

- C20 di-glucoside : Log kow (KOWIN estimate) = 4.33 ; water solubility at 25°C (estimate from Log kow) = 0.02263 mg/l

- C22 di-glucoside : Log kow (KOWIN estimate) = 5.32 ; water solubility at 25°C (estimate from Log kow) = 0.002142 mg/l

Mixture of di C20/22 glucosides = 2% of the registered substance

So the UVCB as a whole (glucosides and alcohols parts) is expected to have a very low water solubility (around 1 μg/l)
