Solubilities of Pesticide Chemicals in Water Part II: Data Compilation

  • Chapter
Reviews of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology

Part of the book series: Reviews of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology ((RECT,volume 116))

Abstract

As discussed in Part I of this two-part series (Shiu et al. 1990) Gunther, Westlake, and Jaglan compiled and published data on the water solubility of 738 pesticide chemicals in 1968. They noted “glaring inconsistencies and lamentable gaps in the literature commonly available to research workers and others interested in even approximate solubility data.” For many chemicals either no data were available or the information was only qualitative. In Part I the environmental physical chemistry of solubility was reviewed. In this second part we discuss data sources and methods of solubility measurement and present a compilation of solubility data for 884 pesticide chemicals.
