The solubility was estimated to beless than 10g/L and definitive testing was continued using the adapted flask method.

Preliminary test (Adapted Flask Method)

The preliminary estimate of the octanol solubility at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C was 6.62 g/L.

Discussion

The loading rate was increased for the definitive test to ensure a saturated solution could be achieve as the preliminary test result was not significantly less than its loading rate.This resultshas been obtained considering the test substance as a whole. As the test substance is a complex mixture, the solubility of the individual constituents may differ.The MT-181 preliminary result suggested the solubility was less than 10 g/L and less than the definitive result; this may have been due the longer shaking times and higher temperature (30°C) used in the flask method allowing for a greater dissolution.

Conclusions:
Under the study conditions, the n-octanol solubility of the test substance was determined to be 10.9 g/L of solution at 20.0 ± 0.5°C.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the n-octanol solubility of the test substance using adapted flask method, according to OECD Guideline 105 and EU Methos A.6. Under the study conditions, the n-octanol solubility of the test substance was determined to be 10.9 g/L at 20.0 ± 0.5°C (Envigo, 2018).

Description of key information
