Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 value for the atmosphereic pressure under which the boiling point was determined. It is assumed that the results referred to normal atmospheric pressure of 1013.25 hPa.

Conclusions:
According to the reference silver has a boiling point of 2212°C.

Description of key information

Two reliable sources (handbooks/factual databases) report the boiling point of silver metal as 2187°C and 2212°C, respectively (Römpp Online, Version 3.1: Georg Thieme Verlag, Dokumentkennung RD-20-01896 and GESTIS database on hazardous substances: www.dguv.de/bgia/stoffdatenbank). Whereas of limited relevance for the assessment, the former value is selected as the key value for chemical safety assessment.
