Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

No reliable vapour pressure could be calculated from the obtained results in the range of 200°C and 230°C due to negligible weight loss. Thus, the weight losses were compared with the results of benzo(ghi)perylene. Since the weight loss of the test item was lower than the weight loss of the reference compound, the vapour pressure of the test item is considered to be lower than that of benzo(ghi)perylene.

 

Representative weight loss curves for the test item and benzo(ghi)perylene are shown in the attached document "S-600 – Vapour pressure.pdf".

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of the test item at 20°C (293K) was <1.3 × 10E(-8) Pa and at 25°C (298K) <7.2 × 10E(-8) Pa.

Description of key information

<1.3 × 10E(-8) Pa at 20°C and <7.2 × 10E(-8) Pa at 25°C (EU A.4, OECD 104, OPPTS 830.7950)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Vapour pressure <1.3 × 10E(-8) Pa at the temperature of 20°C and <7.2 × 10E(-8) Pa at the temperature of 25°C
