Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

A quantity of test substance (0.37 g) was added to the furnace, the apparatus assembled and evacuated to a pressure of less than 1 x 10-5 Torr (1.3 x 10-3 Pa). After stabilisation at a given temperature, the shutter was opened to allow a stream of vapour to impact upon one balance pan. The temperature and pan deflection were recorded on a chart recorder. The trace obtained enabled the calculation of mass difference. The furnace temperature was then raised in steps of approximately 10ºC and further measurements taken. Initial runs were disregarded, the high results being indicative of degassing and/or removal of volatile impurities. Two definitive runs were then performed between temperatures of 108 and 154°C, the pressure being kept at less than 1 x 10-5 Torr (1.3 x 10-3 Pa) throughout. Mass differences, condensation rates and the sample temperature were monitored on a chart recorder on every occasion that the shutter was opened.

Conclusions:
The test substance, T-1620L, was found to have mean vapour pressure of 8 x 10-8 Pa at 25°C.
