Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
vapour pressure
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
study well documented, meets generally accepted scientific principles, acceptable for assessment
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
vapour pressure was determined with an apparatus of Washburn and Heuse, modified by Bacarella, Finch and Grunwald. In a stream of dry nitrogen is allowed to flow consecutively over the liquid in a number of saturator tubes which are being continually rocked. The resultant nitrogen stream is then passed through a cold trap to condense the organic vapors from it. In determining the vapor pressure of pure liquids the contents of the cold trap were sometimes weighed and sometimes analyzed spectrophotometrically.
GLP compliance:
no
