Description of key information

The registered UVCB substance is considered to have low volatility (<< 500 Pa), based on major constituents of the volatile fraction, having Vapour pressure in the range 0.0005 Pa to 2.65 Pa at 20-25°C (QSAR calculated values).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Considering the registered substance is an UVCB, experimental testing was not considered suitable, as it would reflect the most volatile component, and not the substance as a whole. Therefore, a constituent-based, Weigh-of-Evidence approach, was prefered.

Six major constituents were targeted, > 1% each and representing 87,8% of the volatile fraction in a typical composition. No published data was available, so predictions were calculated with EpiSuite model, and found very low or low (between 0.000453 Pa and 2.65 Pa at 20-25°C).

No single key value was derived for the UVCB substance, result expressed as a range was prefered, having more scientific sense.

As a qualitative assessement, based on volatility bands criteria for occupational exposure (Chesar / ECETOC TRA), with the volatile fraction, representing ca 68% of the UVCB, the substance as a whole is regarded as having low volatility (<< 500 Pa).
