Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
vapour pressure
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
19.03.2015 - 19.06.2015
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
comparable to guideline study with acceptable restrictions
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Due to the complex composition and the surface active properties of the sample the vapour pressure could not be determined by the methods layed down by Regulation (EC) 440/2008, EU-method A.4. The sample is an aqueous solution. GC-MS analysis (headspace) showed that there are no volatile organic substances present in concentrations above the determination limits. The vapour pressure therefore results from the vapour pressure of water.
GLP compliance:
yes
Type of method:
other: GC-MS (headspace) measurement in gaseous phase in closed vessel at room temperature
Key result
Temp.:
20 °C
Vapour pressure:
27 hPa
Remarks on result:
other: vapour pressure of the aqueous solution
Conclusions:
Sulfonic acids, shale-oil, sodium salts has a vapour pressure of 20.7 hPa (20°C). The sample is an aqueous solution. GC-MS analysis (headspace) showed that there are no volatile organic substances present in concentrations above the determination limits. The vapour pressure therefore results from the vapour pressure of water.
Executive summary:

Sulfonic acids, shale-oil, sodium salts has a vapour pressure of 20.7 hPa (20°C). The sample is an aqueous solution. GC-MS analysis (headspace) showed that there are no volatile organic substances present in concentrations above the determination limits. The vapour pressure therefore results from the vapour pressure of water.

Description of key information

Sulfonic acids, shale-oil, sodium salts has a vapour pressure of 20.7 hPa (20°C). The sample is an aqueous solution. GC-MS analysis (headspace) showed that there are no volatile organic substances present in concentrations above the determination limits. The vapour pressure therefore results from the vapour pressure of water.
