Study period:
13 Sep 2017
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study with acceptable restrictions
Remarks:
due to the expected very high solubility (miscibility with water) only the preliminary test was performed for confirmation

Results and discussion

Water solubility
Water solubility:
> 3 420 g/L
Remarks on result:
completely miscible
Remarks:
temperature given as "room temperature" (ca. 20 °C), pH not available

Any other information on results incl. tables

The first preliminary tests at room temperature with up to 0.6 mL water showed fume and a lot of bubbles; the test item seemed not to be dissolved. Additional tests with a higher amount of water were carried out, summarized in the table:

Total amount of test item / g

Volume of water / mL

Stirring time / min
