Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

20 °C

Additional information

The vapour pressure of 2-ethylhexanoic acid, zirconium salt is considered to be negligible based on the fact that


(i) the vapour pressure of 2-ethylhexanoic acid is already low: 4 Pa at 20 °C (Flick, E.W. (ed.). Industrial Solvents Handbook 5th ed. Noyes Data Corporation, Westwood, New Jersey, USA, 1998, p. 664)


(ii) the vapour pressure of the 2-ethylhexanoic acid anion is considered to be magnitudes lower since the ionic bond strength is higher compared with the Van-der-Waals interaction of the uncharged molecule.


Thus, further testing is not required, according to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, Annex XI, Section 1.1.


The vapour pressure is set at 1 Pa as a worst case.
