Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.:
90 °C
Vapour pressure:
0.004 Pa
Remarks on result:
other: derived limit value
Remarks:
No temperatures up to 150 °C could be evaluated with reproducible or relevant weight loss. As a calculation on base of the measured weight losses is not possible, the highest mean vapour pressure, derived from all measurements, is stated as limit value.

Test Item

Vapour pressure was examined at nine different temperatures (at 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120, 135 and 150°C). No temperatures could be evaluated as they showed no reproducible or relevant weight loss.

As a calculation on base of the measured weight losses is not possible, the highest mean vapour pressure, derived from all measurements, is stated as limit value.

Vapour pressure at 90°C:         4.12* 10-03 Pa

Positive Control

For Diethylphthalate the following vapour pressure was determined and compared with recommended value:

Table 10.2-a    Results Positive Control

Vapour pressure (positive control) at 30°C:

1.60*10-1 Pa

Criterion for the vapour pressure of the positive control at 30°C

0.44*10-1- 2.44*10-1 Pa

The vapour pressure met the validity criteria. Therefore, the study can be considered as valid.

Conclusions:
No temperatures up to 150 °C could be evaluated with reproducible or relevant weight loss. As a calculation on base of the measured weight losses is not possible, the highest mean vapour pressure, derived from all measurements, is stated as limit value.
Vapour pressure at 90°C: 0.00412 Pa

Description of key information

The vapor pressure was tested according to the OECD Guideline 104 (effusion method: Knudsen cell) at nine different temperatures. No temperatures could be evaluated as they showed no reproducible or relevant weight loss. As

a calculation on base of the measured weight losses is not possible, the highest mean vapour pressure, derived from all measurements, is stated as limit value.

Vapour pressure at 90°C:         4.12* 10-03 Pa

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Vapour pressure:
0.004 Pa
at the temperature of:
90 °C
