Additional information
The boiling point of γ-butyrolactone is 204.6 °C as determined by use of a vapor pressure graph (BASF, 1989) and as similarly reported in a number of reliable, peer reviewed, data sources. Although, for some sources, no specific information was provided regarding atmospheric pressure, results for this endpoint are typically reported at standard pressure (101.325 kPa). Slight decomposition of the substance near the boiling point temperature was reported.
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.
