Temp.:
25 °C
Vapour pressure:
0 Pa
Conclusions:
In accordance with REACh Regulation Annex VII, a study for determination of the vapour pressure need not be to conducted if the melting point is above 300 °C. Potassium cyanate has a melting point of 315 °C.
For potassium cyanate the vapour pressure was calculated to be 2.91 E-7 Pa at 25 °C.
Executive summary:

In accordance with REACh Regulation Annex VII, a study for determination of the vapour pressure need not be to conducted if the melting point is above 300 °C. Potassium cyanate has a melting point of 315 °C.


For potassium cyanate the vapour pressure was calculated to be 2.91 E-7 Pa at 25 °C.
