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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
The vapour pressure of the substance is 3.9 hPa at 20°C
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Vapour pressure:
- 3.9 hPa
- at the temperature of:
- 20 °C
Additional information
The vapour pressure of propionic acid as result from 2 experimental studies from BASF resulted to be between 3,99 hPa at 23 °C and 8.06 hPa at 34.5°C. Also a literature review was conducted. In a weight of evidence approach all values were evaluated.
The GESTIS database reports the vapour pressure to be 3.99 hPa at 23°C, REAXYS reports the vapour pressure to be 5.2 hpa at 25 °C and the Knovel Solvents - A Properties Database reports the vapour pressure to be 3.9 hPa at 20°C.
All results regarded to be reliable for propionic acid. The value which originates from the Knovel Solvents - A Properties Database described the vapour pressure at 20 °C therefore it was choosen as key value for the vapour pressure.
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.
