Reference
Endpoint:
water solubility
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
12 Oct 2011
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: No guideline is mentioned, but performed according to preliminary test according to OECD Guideline 105.
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Water was charged the required amount (1 - 10%) of test substance. The mixture was shaken for appr. 1 min. The clarity was measured by eye and those that were water-white without the presence of droplets were classed miscible.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
flask method
Water solubility:
<= 50 g/L
Remarks on result:
other: 4.5% in 90 g or 100 g water
Water solubility:
<= 4.5 vol%
Remarks on result:
other: in 90 g or 100 g water

No information is given on temperature and pH.

Concetration / %

Miscible

Comments

1

yes

Did not contain droplets and remained water-white on gentle shaking

2

yes

3

yes

4

yes

5

no

Contained droplets at the base of the sample bottle; on gentle shaking an opaque solution resulted

6

no

10

no

4.5

yes

Eventually dissolved with many shakes, did not contain droplets and remained water-white on gentle shaking

Description of key information

≤  50 g/L (no information is given on temperature and pH)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The water solubility of the substance 1,3-butylene diacetate (CAS 1117-31-3) was determined according to preliminary test and visual observation according to OECD Guideline 105.
