Executive summary:

Thymol is a substance described in Beilstein's database, which covers the scientific literature and contains experimentally validated information on millions of chemical reactions and substances from original scientific publications. Thymol with handbook registry number of 1907135 has a water solubility in the range of 800 - 980 mg/L at 20 - 25 °C.

Description of key information

Thymol is a substance described in Beilstein's database, which covers the scientific literature and contains experimentally validated information on millions of chemical reactions and substances from original scientific publications. Thymol with handbook registry number of 1907135 has a water solubility in the range of 800 - 980 mg/L at 20 - 25 °C (Beilstein, 2009).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Water solubility:
980 mg/L
at the temperature of:
20 °C

Additional information

The key study for thymol where a water solubility in the range of 800 - 980 mg/L at 20 - 25 °c is indicated is supported by many other literature data which can be found in various collections of data. The values stated are all in the above mentioned range.

For the chemical safety assessment as key value the highest value of 980 mg/L at the lowest indicated temperature of 20 °C was chosen as this value is a kind of worst-case value with regard to bioavailability.
