Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

The equation of the pressure-temperature curve: log P[Pa] = -3777*1/T[K] + 12.86 (r = 0.995, n = 8).

The weight losses of the test substance were obtained with a temperature program which started above the melting temperature of the test substance. Due to the low melting point of the test substance this cannot be avoided. As a result, the vapour pressure of the test substance (which was, according to the method, extrapolated to 20 °C and 25 °C) could be slightly overestimated.

Description of key information

<= 0.95 Pa at 20 °C; <= 1.6 Pa at 25 °C (EU A.4, OECD 104, OPPTS 830.7950; isothermal TGA effusion method)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Vapour pressure:
1.6 Pa
at the temperature of:
25 °C
