Water solubility
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- water solubility
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- test procedure in accordance with generally accepted scientific standards and described in sufficient detail
- Justification for type of information:
- Screening assessment to confirm very high water solublity
At this level of solubility, accurate assessment is not necessary - Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 105 (Water Solubility)
- Version / remarks:
- Screening study
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Type of method:
- flask method
- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- Batch no. SQU196
Appearance Prill
Composition Potassium benzoate > 99% - Key result
- Water solubility:
- ca. 492 g/L
- Conc. based on:
- test mat.
- Loading of aqueous phase:
- 500 g/L
- Incubation duration:
- ca. 24 h
- Temp.:
- 20 °C
- pH:
- ca. 9.2
- Details on results:
- Preliminary test, water solubility: 200-1000 g/l
Sample 1, 24 h: water solubility = 419.39 g/l, pH = 9.25
Sample 2, 48 h: water solubility = 493.85 g/l, pH = 9.22
Sample 3, 72 h: water solubility = 490.33 g/l, pH = 9.11
Values 2-3 are used for the calculation of the average of values. - Conclusions:
- Very soluble in water.
