Remarks on result:

other: calculations were based on the quantitative analysis of the constituent Disodium C-(2-((1-oxooctadecyl)amino)ethyl) sulphonato-succinate (CAS RN 85081-55-6) (m/z 506.4)

Preliminary test

The content of test item dissolved in the n-octanol sample was 0.0202 g/L.

Main study

The results for the samples taken at 122, 146 and 170 hours are given in the table below. The maximum difference of analysed concentrations measured in the 3 vessels was > 15%. As the analysed concentrations in the 2 last vessels (i.e. the 146- and 170- hour measurements) did not differ by more than 15%, the test was satisfactory. Based on this, the octanol solubility of the test item was given as the mean value of the 146- and 170-hour measurements. The octanol solubility of the test item at 20°C was 0.007 g/L.

Stirring time [hours]	Analyzed concentration [g/L]	Mean^1 [g/L]	Maximum difference^1 [%]
122	0.00626
146	0.00661	0.00700	11
170	0.00740

1 Mean and maximum difference were calculated using the values of the 146- and 170-hour measurements.

The Pow, calculated as the quotient of the n-octanol- and water solubility, is 2.7 x 10 ^-2. It corresponds with a log Pow value of -1.6. No test item was detected in the pretreated samples from the blank octanol mixture.

Conclusions:

The Pow value of the test item at 20°C was 2.7 x 10-2. It corresponds with a log Pow value of -1.6.

Executive summary:

The estimation method was applied for the determination of the partition coefficient (Pow) of the test item. The Pow value of the test item at 20°C was 2.7 x 10 ^-2. It corresponds with a log Pow value of -1.6.

Description of key information
