Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
The vapour pressure of trimellitic anhydride (TMA) was determined at 32 and 40°C, using the gas saturation method.
The VP-temperature relationship based on the Clausius-Clapeyron equation was used to extrapolate to temperatures (20 and 25°C) below the range of measurement. The method is generally suitable for materials that are relatively non-volatile and have high boiling points and is more reliable than extrapolations based on data obtained with molten material.
Extrapolated vapour pressures of TMA at 20 and 25 deg C were 0.0000653 and 0.0000738 Pa, respectively. These values are very low compared to normal atmospheric pressure.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Vapour pressure:
- 0 Pa
- at the temperature of:
- 25 °C
Additional information
The supporting study reports a second extrapolated vapour pressure, at 25 deg C, equal to 0.0000152 Pa (1.5E-10 atm), having the same order of magnitude of the key study.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
