Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
The reported vapour pressure of the xylene isomers at 25˚C ranges from 0.882 to 1.332 kPa. The vapour pressure of Ethylbenzene at
25˚C was reported to be 1.332 kPa, for m-xylene is 1.106 kPa, for o-xylene is 0.882 kPa and for p-xylene is 1.167 kPa. The mean value of 1.122 kPa was used in this assessment.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Vapour pressure:
- 1.122 kPa
- at the temperature of:
- 25 °C
Additional information
Data was taken from Zwolinski and Wilhoit (1971) which is a peer reviewed handbook and so can be considered reliable and suitable for use as the key study for this endpoint. The data are supported by results from the CRC Handbook (Lide 2008), with vapour pressures for m-xylene, o-xylene, p-xylene and ethylbenzene of 1 kPa at 23.4˚C, 1 kPa at 27°C, 1 kPa at 22.4°C and 1 kPa at 21.1°C respectively.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
