Executive summary:

The US EPA RED on the pesticide Furanone provides, as secondary source, some physico-chemical properties on the two compounds of Furanone, including physical form.

It describes the substance of the present dossier as a colorless to yellow liquid, with a strong peach odour.

Description of key information

The substance is described as a colourless to pale yellow liquid, with strong peach odour.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Physical state at 20°C and 1013 hPa:
liquid

Additional information

The physical state and odour of the substance are reported in a fully reliable experimental study, conducted by the registrant. It is consistent with literature data.
