Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Type of method:
effusion method: by loss of weight or by trapping vaporisate
Remarks:

Weight loss curves of the test substance and hexachlorobenzene were compared.

Reference PT value of hexachlorobenzene: 0.00147 Pa (20°C) (corresponds with 0.00421 Pa at 25°C)

The weight loss of the test substance at 110°C, 120°C, 130°C and 140°C was lower than the weight loss of hexachlorobenzene at the same temperatures.

No significant weight loss of the test substance was observed below the melting temperature of the test substance (i.e. a relatively low vapour pressure was obtained).

Conclusions:
The isothermal TGA effusion method was applied for the determination of the vapour pressure of 3,3’-DDS.
The vapour pressure of the test substance at 20°C (293K) was < 1.5 x 10E-3 Pa (= < 1.1 x 10E-5 mm Hg).
No significant weight loss of the test substance was observed below the melting temperature of the test substance (i.e. a relatively low vapour pressure was obtained).
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the 3,3' -DDS at 20°C (293K) was < 1.5 x 10E-3 Pa (= < 1.1 x 10E-5 mm Hg).

Additional information

The isothermal TGA effusion method was applied for the determination of the vapour pressure of 3,3’-DDS.

The vapour pressure of the test substance at 20°C (293K) was < 1.5 x 10^-3 Pa (= < 1.1 x 10^-5 mm Hg).

No significant weight loss of the test substance was observed below the melting temperature of the test substance (i.e. a relatively low vapour pressure was obtained).
