Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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:
calculation (if not (Q)SAR)
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2009-11-30
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
accepted calculation method
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Software tool(s) used including version: SPARC and MPBPWIN (v1.43) Modified Grain method

Since the melting point is above 200 °C and the vapour pressure was predicted to be below 1.0 Pa, and such low vapour pressures are experimentally very difficult to perform, calculation of vapour pressure was selected. Substances with low vapour pressure are not very likely to vaporise and become airborne. The vapour pressure has been calculated with two different calculation programs. According to “Endpoint specific guidance R.7.1.5.3” are SPARC and MPBPWIN recommended as calculation programs for vapour pressure. Because the results from the two calculation programs differ the highest value has been reported.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
other: calculation
Temp.:
20 °C
Vapour pressure:
0 Pa
Remarks on result:
other: calculation with SPARC
Temp.:
20 °C
Vapour pressure:
0 Pa
Remarks on result:
other: calculation with MPBPWIN v1.43 (Modified Grain method)
Conclusions:
Since the vapour pressure is low with both calculation methods (SPARC and MPBPWIN), the substance is not likely to vapourise and become airborne.
The highest calculated value is 2.3 x 10^-10 Pa.
Executive summary:

Since the melting point is above 200 °C and the vapour pressure was predicted to be below 1.0 Pa,and such low vapour pressures are experimentally very difficult to perform, calculation of vapourpressure was selected. Substances with low vapour pressure are not very likely to vaporise andbecome airborne. The vapour pressure has been calculated with two different calculation programs, SPARC and MPBPWIN. The highest calculated value is 2.3 x 10^ -10 Pa.
