Overview
This book is a compilation of experimentally determined solubility ranges of over 1700 compounds in the National Toxicology Program's Chemical Repository. Each compound's solubility was determined in a consistent manner in one to six solvents. Solvents chosen were those most commonly used for toxicology studies, spill cleanups, and chemical synthesis or chemical reaction experiments. These solvents include acetone, 95% ethanol, water, dimethyl sulfoxide, methanol, and tuluene. Data for many of the research and industrial chemicals featured in this volume do not exist anywhere else. .
