LlMS # E00-1762,Page 6 of 28 3M EnvironmentalLaboratory Report No. FACT-TCR-005 SUMMARY Solubility of PFOA in water is a significant parameter because the spatial and temporal movement (mobility) of a substance through the environment is largely determined by its solubility in water. Water soluble substances readily gain access to humans and other living organisms; furthermore the knowledge of the solubility in water is a prerequisite for testing biological degradation, bioaccumulation, and other tests. Solubility of PFOA in methanol and acetone is a significant parameter for general laboratory knowledge in the preparation and analysis of PFOA. The approximate solubility of PFOA was determined by performing a solubility screen test (ETS-8170.0). PFOA was determined to be soluble at concentrations greater than 10% (mass/volume) in water, methanol, and acetone at 23'C. According to the screen test, if the substance is determined to be soluble at concentrations greater than 10% (mass/volume) then no additional solubility testing is required. Due to insufficient quantity of test substance, PFOA TCR-99131-018 was not tested. The small amount of remaining material was archived. Results are presented in table 1: Table 1.

ETS-8-170.0 was subsequently revised to more accurately account for what was done during the screening test, and to remove sensitive information. This revised version, ETS-8-170.1, may be found in Appendix A. LlMS# E00-1762,Page 8 of 28 3M Environmental Laboratory Report No. FACT-TCR-005 The Solubility Screen Test Method was used to determine the solubility range of PFOA TCR-99131-037 in water, methanol, and acetone. Incrementalamounts of water, methanol, or acetone were added to PFOA neat material and a qualitative determination of the solubility was made. The screen test indicated the solubility of PFOA to be greater than 10% (mass/volume) in water, methanol, and acetone at 23.0 "C.A detailed description of the Solubility Screen Test method used in this study is located in Attachment A. PREPARATORMYETHOD 0 ETS-8-1701.0 "Solubility Screen Test: Approximate Solubility Determination of a Test Substance in Various Solvents." This method is a pre-requisite to the shake flask and column elution methods and provides an estimate of the solubility of the test substance in the solvent of choice. If the test substance is determined to be soluble at concentrations greater than 10% (;mass/volume)then no additional testing is required. A preliminary screen test was performed on 17 July, 01. During this screen test, test solvent was continually added until a gel-like substance formed, and the PFOA never completely solubilized. The data and records for this preliminary test are not available, however the test was repeated on 08 September, 01 and the same results were observed and documented as follows. Approximately 10 mg PFOA was weighed into a glass vial, and 0.1 mL of the appropriate solvent was added. Following solvent addition, the vial was shaken, sonicated, and observed for particulates. The solubility screen test estimated the solubility of PFOA to be greater than 10% (mass/volume) in water, methanol and acetone at 23.0 "C.No additional solubility testing was necessary for any of the three solvents. Table 4. Summary of Sample Preparation. % I O mg test substance is weighed into tared glass screw-capped vial. 0.1 mL of test solvent (water, methanol or acetone) is added to glass screw-camed vial. 3 Followingthe addition of test solvent, the vial is capped, shaken 9/8/00 vigorously (or vortexed). and the mixture is sonicated. Record mixing and sonication times on the worksheet. 4 Following sonication, the sample is checked visually for undissolved particles of the test substance. If all of the test substance is dissolved, the solubilii is determined to be greater than 10%(rnasslvolurne) and no additional solubility testing is required. If a portion of the test substance remains undissolved, additional dilutions are performed using the appropriate solvent. PROTOCODLEVIATIONS There were no deviations from the original protocol for this phase.

Rea&, Laboratory Manager Date - 1.0 SCOPE AND APPLICATION 1.1 Purpose. According to methods set forth by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and the Organization for the Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) a preliminary study, which will be outlined in this method, serves as a prerequisite to perfomling solubility testing via the Column Elution Method and Shake Flask Methods. The EPA and OECD solubility testing guidelines state that if the preliminary solubility determina.tiontest indicates a solubility of > 10" g/L (10 ppm), the Shake Flask Method (ETS-8-1'72.0) is to be used. If preliminary testing indicates a solubility of 10-2g/L,(10 ppm) the Column Elution Method (ETS-8-171.0) will be used to determine the solubility in the solvent of interest. Additionally, due to the tendency of certain compounds to be highly sohble in particular solvents, no hrther solubility determinationwill be necessary for compounds having solubility greater than 10% (madvolume). 1.2 Compatible Analytes.

Aqueous (e.g. Milli-Q water, 0.01M CaCl,), Acetone, Methanol, or other solvent(s) of interest. 2.0 SUMMARY OF METHOD 2.1 Preliminary Solubility Determination in solvent. Weigh approximately 10 mg of test substance into a 2.5 mL-4 mL glass screw-capped vial. Add test solvent in varying increments,to the vial. After each solvent addition, vortex mix for approximately 15 sec., and sonicate 2-5 minutes. Make observations of the solution and visually confirm whether or not particles are present; it may be necessary to allow the solution to sit for up to 5 minutes. Add test solvent in a stepwise fashion up to 2 mL. If the substance fully dissolves after the first solvent addition of 100 pL,the test substance shall be considered highly soluble, and no further testing is required. If there are still undissolved particles in the vial, wleigh 10mg of test substance into a 100mL glass stoppered volumetric flask or graduated cylinder. Add test solvent until visual confirmation of the substance dissolution has been achieved. Record all observations on a standardized preparation sheet or logbook. Once 100mL solvent has been reached, the approximate concentration is at 100 pg/mL. If the solubility limit has not yet been achieved, weigh approximately 10 mg of test substance and transfer to a 1 L graduated cylinderholumetric flask (concentration is approximaiely 10ppm). The container should be sonicated and allowed to sit overnight to allow for maximal dissolution. If the undissolved particles are still observed after sitting > 12 hours, the column elution method will be utilized (ETS-8-171.0). If the test substance dissolves in 1L or less of solvent, the shake flask method (ETS-8-172.0) will be used to determine the solubility. 3.0 DEFINITIONS 3.1 Test substance.

Visually check for undissolved particles. If undissolved test substance remains, continue adding solvent according to the above chart. It may be necessary to idlow the solution to settle for up to 5 minutes before making observations. Record observations on the standardized prep sheet. 12.1.4 If all particles dissolve, then estimate the approximate solubility and document the concentration. Because the concentration is >10 pg/mL, the shake flask method (E'TS-8-172.0) will be used to determine the accurate solubility point. However, if the test substance dissolves after thefirst solvent addition of 100 pL the solubility is determined to be >lo% (mass/volume). The test substance shall be regarded as "highly soluble,'' and no further testing is required. 12.1.5 If the test substance did not dissolve in the 2 mL of solvent, weigh 10 mg & 1 mg of test substance into a 100 mL glass volumetric flask or equivalent. Record the weight (refer to attachment A for an example of a standardized prep sheet). 12.1.6 Add solvent according to the table below to the test substance to deliver the appropriate amount of solvent.

If the undissolved particles are still observed, the column elution method will be utilized (ETS-8- 171.O). If no visible particulates are observed, the shake flaskmethod (ETS-8- 172.0) shall be used to determine the solubility. 13.0 DATAANALYSIASND CALCULATIONS 13.1 The solubility determination in this method is qualitative/semi-quantitative. 13.2 The point to which the substance dissolves in solvent is confirmed visually. The solubility point is therefore a qualitative determination. 13.3 The concentration estimation is semi-quantitative in that the approximate concentration is calculated by the following equation: c=db Where: c= the semi-quantitative concentration pg/mL, a= amount of substance weighed out (pg), and b= the approximate amount of solvent added (mL). 14.0 METHODPERFORMANCE 14.1 Limitation of data. The accuracy to which the solubility is determined is subject to a large margin of error due to the way in which the solvent is added to the solute. Since large andl varying increments of solvent are being added to the solute, this error margin must be considered when reporting the concentration estimation. 14.2 The data obtained through this study is an estimation only and should be treated as a qualitative estimation of the solubility of test substance in a given solvent.
