Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the water solubility of the test substance according to EU Method A.6, in compliance with GLP. The substance was weighted into distilled water and mixed for a minimum of 24 h. The aqueous solution was then centrifuged for 60 min at 24°C and filtered under pressure. The centrifuge glass was checked visually after decanting and the filter surface was checked at the end of the filtration process. The analytical method used was UV spectrometry. As a result of the high concentration of chloralkali in the test substance, a “salting-out" effect was observed at higher weighed-in concentrations. This resulted in a decrease in the dye concentrations in the aqueous phase, at higher test substance concentrations. The substance is fully soluble up to 93 g/L in pure water

. The saturated solution had a pH of 8 (Böck, 1989).
