Conclusions:
The water solubility corresponding to the critical micelle concentration of C8-10 Alkylamidopropyl betaine was determined to be 4.9 g/L at 20°C.
Executive summary:

The water solubility of C8-10 Alkylamidopropyl betaine was addressed by determination of the critical micelle concentration (CMC). The CMC was determined by measurement of the surface tension according to OECD Guideline 115 (1995) and EU method A.5 (2008) at different concentrations of the test item. 

The water solubility, expressed by the critical micelle concentration, of C8-10 Alkylamidopropyl betaine was determined to be 4.9 g/L at 20°C.

Description of key information

CMC: 4.9 g/L at 20°C (OECD TG 115/EU method A.5; GLP; RL1)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Water solubility:
4.9 g/L
at the temperature of:
20 °C
