Description of key information

The Henry's Law Constant (HLC) of 1,2-dichloro-1,1,2-trifluoro-2-(trifluoromethoxy)ethane is calculated to be 88177 Pa·m3/mol.

Basing on such value 1,2-dichloro-1,1,2-trifluoro-2-(trifluoromethoxy)ethane is anticipated to have rapid volatilization from water.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Henry's law constant (H) (in Pa m³/mol):
88 177
at the temperature of:
20 °C

Additional information

The Henry's Law Constant (HLC) of 1,2-dichloro-1,1,2-trifluoro-2-(trifluoromethoxy)ethane is calculated according to the following equation:

Henry's Law Constant (HLC) = (VP x MOLW) / WS

(Reference: Guidance on Information Requirements and Chemical Safety Assessment_ Chapter R.16:

Environmental Exposure Estimation_ Version 3_Equation R.16-4)

 

where:

VP = Vapour pressure (Pa) = 46135 Pa (at 20°C)

MOLW = Molecular Weight (g/mol) = 237g/mol

WS = Water solubility (mg/L) = 124 mg/L (at 20°C)

 

As reported in Guidance on Information Requirements and Chemical Safety Assessment_Chapter R.7a_v.6., substances with HLC values around 100 Pa·m3/mol, will have a rapid volatilization from water.

Basing on the calculated Henry’s Law constant value, volatilization of 1,2-dichloro-1,1,2-trifluoro-2-(trifluoromethoxy)ethane from water is expected to be very rapid.
