Description of key information

Determination of water solubility has been performed by According to the Environmental Analytical Chemistry and Applied Ecotoxicology Groups, National Research Council of Canada. The aqueous solubility of NTO at 25 ºC was found to be 17200 mg/L.

According to the publish data (Spear R.J., Louey C.N. and Wolfson M.G.: A preliminary assessment of NTO as an insensitive high explosive) the water solubility of the test substance, NTO, substance is 12800 mg/L at 18.95 ℃.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Water solubility:
17 200 mg/L
at the temperature of:
25 °C

Additional information

A water solubility determination was performed as part of a package of environmental fate and ecological testing ( Environmental Analytical Chemistry and Applied Ecotoxicology Groups, National Research Council of Canada, 2012, NRC # 53412).

NTO was found to have a water solubility of 17200 mg/ L at 25 °C.

The second value for water solubility is available from publish data (Spear R.J., Louey C.N. and Wolfson M.G.: A preliminary assessment of NTO as an insensitive high explosive). According to this publication the water solubility of this substance is 12800 mg/L at 18.95 ℃.

The water solubility (performed at DSTO Materials Research Laboratory) of this substance is 12800 mg/L at 18.95 ℃.
