Description of key information
The water solubility of the main degradation product 2-ethylhexan-1-ol (CAS 104-76-7) is reported to be 880 mg/L. This value is used in the risk assessment, since the main degradation product will be present in the environment instead of the parent, in view of the rapid hydrolysis of the peroxide.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Water solubility:
- 880 mg/L
- at the temperature of:
- 25 °C
Additional information
In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII (7.7), the test for water solubility does not need to be conducted as the substance undergoes rapid hydrolysis (see IUCLID section 5.1.2).
The water solubility of the main degradation product (CAS 104-76-7) is reported to be 880 mg/L (Amidon et al., 1974). This value is used in the risk assessment, since the main degradation product will be present in the environment instead of the parent, in view of the rapid hydrolysis of the peroxide.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
