Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results (migrated information): very soluble (> 10000 mg/L)
Lactide is soluble in water, but the solubility is limited, if by nothing else, by its hydrolytic instability. - Executive summary:
Two methods are available for the determination of the water solubility of a test substance:
1. Column elution method The method is based on the elution of the test substance with water from a column which is charged with an inert support material, such as bare silica particles, coated with an excess of the test substance. It can be applied to test substances with a water solubility of less than 10 mg/L.
2. Flask method The mass concentration of the test substance in aqueous solutions saturated with the test substance will be determined after stirring or shaking at a specific temperature for a specific period of time. The method can be used for test substances with a water solubility of >= 10 mg/L. A preliminary test was carried out as a range-finding test prior to performance of the column elution method or flask method. Because degradation was expected to occur rapidly, it was decided to perform a preliminary test to see what maximum LL-Lactide concentration would be reached. To prevent degradation during sample pre-treatment as much as possible, it was decided to remove undissolved test substance by filtration since this takes less time than centrifugation.
