Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Guideline:
EU Method A.4 (Vapour Pressure)
Version / remarks:
European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, A.4. Vapour pressure: Vapour pressure balance
Deviations:
no
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 104 (Vapour Pressure Curve)
Version / remarks:
OECD 104 (2006) Vapour pressure
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:

Type of method:
effusion method: vapour pressure balance
Temp.:
25 °C
Vapour pressure:
0 hPa

The vapour pressure was measured in the temperature range of 30 °C to 60 °C. The measured vapour pressures at the corresponding temperatures are listed in the following table:

 Temperature [°C]  Vapour pressure [hPa]
30 5.0 x 10-4
35 8.7 x 10-4
40 1.8 x 10 -3
45 3.5 x 10 -3
50 5.7 x 10 -3
55 9.5 x 10-3
60 1.60 x 10 -2

The figure (attached as background material) gives the vapour pressure (logarithmic scale) as a function of the inverse temperature (1/T, T in Kelvin). Only for better readability the temperature is also reported in a centigrade scale. The values for 20, 25 and 50 °C are calculated, using the Antoine constants A, B and C as shown there.

 T [°C]  p [hPa]  p [Pa]
20 1.3 x 10-4 1.3 x 10 -2
25 2.6 x 10-4 2.6 x 10 -2
50 5.6 x 10 -3 5.6 x 10-1
Conclusions:
The following vapour pressure values for the test item were extrapolated from the experimental data:
20 °C: 0.00013 hPa
25 °C: 0.00026 hPa
50 °C: 0.0056 hPa
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the sample was tested according to EU Method A.4 and OECD Guideline 104 in a non-GLP study with the effusion method.

The following vapour pressure values for the test item were extrapolated from the experimental data:

20 °C: 0.00013 hPa

25 °C: 0.00026 hPa

50 °C: 0.0056 hPa
