Description of key information

Appearance :

On the basis of physical observation it is concluded that 2-Propen-1-yl butanoate appears as a colorless liquid having peach/apricot odor.

Melting point :

Freezing point of 2-Propen-1-yl butanoate is determine to be -62.69 Deg C.

Boiling Point :

Boiling point of 2-Propen-1-yl butanoate is determine to be 142 Deg C.

Density :

Density of 2-Propen-1-yl butanoate is determine to be 0.90 g/cm3 at 20 Deg C.

Particle size distribution :

The study does not need to be conducted because the substance is marketed or used in a non solid or granular form. On the basis of physical observation it is concluded that 2-Propen-1-yl butanoate appears as a liquid.

Vapour pressure :

Vapour pressure of 2-Propen-1-yl butanoate is determine to be 1.3332 kPa at 39.67 Deg C & 202.6550 kPa at 173.93 Deg C.

Partition coefficient :

Based on the available data from authoritative and modeling databases, the partition coefficient (log Pow) value of the substance2-Propen-1-yl butanoate was estimated to be 2.2. On the basis of the estimated value, chemical 2 -Propen-1 -yl butanoate can be considered to be hydrophilic in nature.

Water solubility :

The estimated water solubility of 2-Propen-1-yl butanoate at 25 deg C was 1233 mg/l.

Surface tension :

Based on the data from ACD labs, surface tension for 2-Propen-1-yl butanoate was predicted to be 0.0267 N/m.

Flash point :

Flash point of 2-Propen-1-yl butanoate is determine to be 41.67 Deg C. Based on this flash point it comes under Flammable category 3.

Auto flammability :

2-Propen-1-yl butanoate did not catch fire on being exposed to air at room temperature of 27°C pressure of 966 hPa. This indicates that  2-Propen-1-yl butanoate is not auto-flammable.

Flammability :

2-Propen-1-yl butanoate does not indicate any ignition when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of approximately 950°C is brought in contact with it. Thus it can be concluded that 2-Propen-1-yl butanoate is not flammable at high temperature. However since such high temperatures are not found under normal circumstances of transportation and use, thus 2-Propen-1-yl butanoate was considered non-flammable for chemical safety assessment.

Explosiveness :

The study does not need to be conducted because there are no chemical groups present in the molecule which are associated with explosive properties.

Oxidizing properties :

The study does not need to be conducted because the organic substance contains oxygen or halogen atoms which are chemically bonded only to carbon or hydrogen and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied.
