Details on results:
The solubility of AM(pfa)4 in water was determined from the measured concentrations of Alkali in the filtrated and diluted test solutions. The concentration of the test item was calculated from the measured Alkali concentrations and Alkali content in the test item (0.71 %).
As a Tyndall effect was present in the double filtrated solutions (0.45 µm and 0.2 µm PTFE), each filtrate was additionally ultrafiltrated with 3kDa filters via centrifugation at 4500 rpm for 1 hour. None of the 3fold filtrated test solutions showed a Tyndall effect (i.e. a laser beam was not scattered when transmitted through the liquid).
All replicates showed good correspondence. After the analysis of the sample of day 3, the plateau was considered as reached. The water solubility of the test item was stated as 47.95 ±3.25 g/L with a relative standard deviation of 6.8 %.
A difference between 80 g/L solubility of the test item in water determined in the pre-test during the method validation study and 47.95 g/L determined during this study is a result of a presence of the Tyndall effect after double filtration of the test item solution during the pre-test.

Mean at the plateau was 47.95 ± 3.25 g/L.

Conclusions:
The water solubility of the test item was stated as 47.95 ±3.25 g/L with a relative standard deviation of 6.8 %.
Executive summary:

The solubility of the test item AM(pfa)4 in water was determined by measurement of the Alkali concentration in the filtrated and diluted test solutions using ICP-OES. The concentration of the test item was calculated from the measured Alkali concentrations and Alkali content in the test item (0.71 %).


The preliminary test which is described in the guideline was performed during the validation of the analytical method study 19110701G926. The solubility range was estimated as 50 – 100 g/L. After analysis of 200 g/L nominal load, the dissolved concentration of the test item in water was 80 g/L. For test items with water solubility above 10 mg/L, the flask method was used.


In the main test, 400 g/L AM(pfa)4 were used to prepare a saturated solution as the water solubility detected in the pre-test was approx. 80 g/L (in the guideline, fivefold saturation is proposed). Six flasks were prepared (1A – 1C and 2 – 4); the flasks 1A – 1C were used during an equilibration time. Four flasks (1C (for the sampling point 72 h) and 2 – 4) were set onto the shaker immediately. After 24 ±2 hours, flask 1B (for the sampling point 48 h) and after 48 ±2 hours, flask 1A (for the sampling point 24 h) were set on the shaker and all flasks were shaken for further 24 ±2 hours at room temperature. Then, flasks 1A – 1C were taken from the shaker, tempered at 20.0 ±0.5 °C, samples were taken, membrane filtered, diluted and analysed via ICP-OES. Due to a difference of less than 15 % in the concentrations on days 2 and 3 and no upward tendency, the test was finished on day 3. The final measurement was performed as determination from flasks 2 – 4.


As a Tyndall effect was present in the double filtrated solutions (0.45 µm and 0.2 µm PTFE), each filtrate was additionally ultrafiltrated with 3kDa filters via centrifugation at 4500 rpm for 1 hour. None of the 3fold filtrated test solutions showed a Tyndall effect (i.e. a laser beam was not scattered when transmitted through the liquid).


 


At the plateau, the concentration of AM(pfa)4 in water had reached 47.95 ±3.25 g/L at 20.0 °C and pH 6.34 – 6.35 = 47.95 ±3.25 kg/m³ (SI units) (mean value ± standard deviation of six individual flasks).
