Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
appearance / physical state / colour
Type of information:
other: data from OECD SIDS
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: literature/information not available, the data, however, were evaluated in the frame of the OECD SIDS program and therefore regarded as valid
Physical state at 20°C and 1013 hPa:
liquid
Substance type:
organic
Conclusions:
Diisopropylbenzene (m-/p-mixture) is an organic liquid at 1013 hPa and 20°C.
Endpoint:
appearance / physical state / colour
Type of information:
other: handbook value
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: peer-reviewed handbook data
GLP compliance:
not specified
Physical state at 20°C and 1013 hPa:
liquid
Substance type:
organic
Conclusions:
m- and p-diisopropylbenzene are organic liquids at 1013 hPa and 20°C.
Executive summary:

According to the information provided in the peer-reviewed handbook, m- and p-diisopropyl benzene are organic liquids at 1013 hPa and 20°C.

Endpoint:
appearance / physical state / colour
Adequacy of study:
other information
Reliability:
4 (not assignable)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
peer-reviewed handbook data, but the data on the physical state at ambient conditions in respect to p-diisopropylbenzene (in this case solid) are in contradiction to the information provided in other reliable sources (p-diisopropylbenzene: liquid at ambient conditions)
GLP compliance:
not specified
Physical state at 20°C and 1013 hPa:
liquid
Remarks:
m-diisopropylbenzene
Colour:
m-diisopropylbenzene: colorless
p-diisopropylbenzene: white
Substance type:
organic
Conclusions:
m-Diisopropylbenzene is a colorless organic liquid at 1013 hPa and 20°C. The data on the physical state at ambient conditions in respect to p-diisopropylbenzene (in this case solid) are in contradiction to the information provided in other reliable sources (p-diisopropylbenzene: liquid at ambient conditions). Therefore this information is regarded as invalid.
