Description of key information
A TGD-approved handbook states that the notional solid structure of gluconic acid is “freely soluble in water”.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The information regarding the water solubility of 50% aqueous solution of gluconic acid was based on the notional solid structure and was sourced from two separate handbooks. Merck Index: An Encyclopedia of Chemicals, Drugs, and Biologicals (14th Ed.) and Ullmann's Encylopedia of Industrial Chemistry (7th Ed.) report that gluconic acid is “freely soluble in water” and “soluble in water”, respectively. However, no numerical value for concentration or information on solution temperature or pH was reported in either source. Although the information from both sources is comparable, the data obtained from Ullmann’s handbook is not TGD-approved, and as such is of Klimish-4 reliability and is not considered valid.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
