Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

Additional information

Substance Endpoint fatty acids, C16 -18, 2 -butyloctyl esters
State of the substance light yellowish liquid with typical odour 
Melting/ Freezing point  Pour point: - 6 °C at 101 kPa
Boiling point decomposition > 375 °C at 101 kPa
Relative density 0.8562 at 20.0 °C 
Vapour pressure

0.00000057 Pa at 20 °C 

Surface tension  Waiving: based on structure (surface activity is not expected)
Water solubility 0.000425 µg/L at 25 °C
Partition coefficient, logPow

11.19

Flash point  226 °C at 101 kPa
Flammability

Waiving: The substance does not contain any chemical group which could lead to spontaneous ignition after contact with air at room temperature (20 °C). The substance is liquid and therefore the flash point is relevant.

Explosive properties

Waiving: based on consideration of the structure

Ignition temperature 327 °C 
Oxidizing Properties Waiving: based on consideration of the structure 
Granulometry  Waiving: the material is a liquid
Viscosity (kinematic) 26.9 mm²/ s at 20.0 °C
Stability in organic solvents   Statement: stable in organic solvents.
