The dimensionless HLC is reported to be 0.00038, which corresponds to 0.94 Pa m3/mol.

Executive summary:

Altschuh, 1999


The Henry´s law constant (HLC) was measured at 25 °C with the thermodynamic method and HPLC/GC (thermodynamic method according to Brunner et al. (1990) and Piringer and Skoeries (1984)). The method consisted in using a concentration of o-toluidine of 200 mg/l. The dimensionless HLC is reported to be 0.00038 at 25 °C, which corresponds to 0.94 Pa m3/mol.

Description of key information

For transported isolated intermediates according to REACh, Article 18, this endpoint is not a data requirement. However, data is available for this endpoint and is thus reported under the guidance of "all available data".
