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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

EC number: 953-863-9 | CAS number: -
Vapour pressure
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- vapour pressure
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- Unknown
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- data from handbook or collection of data
- Justification for type of information:
- 1. HYPOTHESIS FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
The dossier substance is composed mainly of water (66.7-95.3%), therefore the physical-chemical properties are likely to be those of water.
2. SOURCE AND TARGET CHEMICAL(S) (INCLUDING INFORMATION ON PURITY AND IMPURITIES)
The source chemical is pure water. The target substance consists of 66.7-95.3% water. For the remaining composition of the target substance, see the composition section (1.2).
3. ANALOGUE APPROACH JUSTIFICATION
The target substance consists of distillates from heating the leaves of a natural plant, Nicotiana tabacum, solanaceae. The target substance consists of the compounds released during the heating to release moisture. The target substance consists of the organic compounds in the leaves and water. As the substance consists mostly of water, use of water data is justified as representing the major influence on the density of the substance.
