Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
supporting study
Study period:
between 13 October 2016 and 18 October 2017
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
comparable to guideline study with acceptable restrictions
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
This test is only performed to give an impression of the solubility of Dimercaptodiethylsulphide (DMDS) in different organic solvents. It does not claim to determine exact solubility in g/L.
GLP compliance:
no
Other quality assurance:
other: ISO 9001:2008
Key result
Medium:
other: n-hexane
Solubility:
>= 10 - < 33 g/L
Temp.:
20 °C
Key result
Medium:
acetonitrile
Solubility:

Temp.:
21 °C
Key result
Medium:
ethanol
Solubility:
>= 100 - < 200 g/L
Temp.:
20 °C
Test substance stable:
not determined
Conclusions:
Based on the definition in the European Pharmacopoeia, Dimercaptodiethylsulphide (DMDS) is infinitely soluble in Acetonitrile, readily soluble in Ethanol and sparingly soluble in Hexane.
