Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Key result
Temp.:
20 °C
Vapour pressure:
0.003 Pa

Using the temperature program below 100 °C no significant weight loss was observed. At these temperatures the vapour pressure cannot be determined with sufficient accuracy. The determination was repeated applying temperatures above 100 °C. The coefficient of correlation (r) was 0.9961. Extrapolation of the curve to 20 °C and fitting this value in the regression curve, a vapour pressure of 2.89 x 10E-3 Pa was obtained (temperature program 100 °C to 150 °C, evaluation at 110 °C to 140 °C).

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of potassium hexadecyl hydrogen phosphate K at 20°C was determined to be 2.89 x 10E-3 Pa.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted according to Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 method A.4 using the isothermal thermogravimetry method. Below 100 °C no significant weight loss was observed. The determination was repeated applying temperatures above 100 °C. A value of the vapour pressure of potassium hexadecyl hydrogen phosphate could only be determined using the data obtained above 100 °C. The vapour pressure of potassium hexadecyl hydrogen phosphate at 20 °C (293 K) was calculated to be 2.89 x 10E-3 Pa.

Description of key information
