Description of key information

Appearance:

On the basis of physical observation, Nonan-2-one was observed to be to be a Clear colourless liquid in appearance.

other supporting studies from various reliable sources such as authoritative database and handbooks suggests that the chemicalNonan-2-one was observed to be colorless to pale yellow liquid in appearance having aromaticfruity, floral, fatty, herbaceous odour.

Freezing point:

Based on available data from reliable sources such as authoritative database and handbook,the freezing point for chemical Nonan-2-one was determined to be -9 degree C.

Other supporting studies from various reliable sources such as authoritative database and handbook suggests that the freezing point of chemical Nonan-2-one was determined to be in the range of -21 degree C to -7.5 degree ,and the selected key study value lies in the range as mentioned above.

Boiling point:

The boiling point determination ofNonan-2-one(CAS No.821-55-6)was done following OECD Guideline 103 and according to the method of Siwoloboff. The test was conducted in replicates and mean boiling point was determined to be 198°C at 981.7 hPa.

Density:

The density of test substanceNonan-2-one(CAS No. 821-55-6)was determined following OECD Guideline 109 and according to thefollowing OECD guideline 109 and according to the Indian standard method for determination of density of liquids [IS 4730:1994 (Reaffirmed 2010)]using glass pyknometer. The density of the test item was determined to be 0.8200 g/cm3at 20°Cand 981.8 hPa.

Particle Size Distribution:

The study does not need to be conducted because the test chemical is marketed or used in a non- solid or granular form.The chemical Nonan-2-one is a liquid . Hence this end point was considered for waiver.

Vapour Pressure:

Data from handbooks and authoritative databases suggests that the experimental vapor pressure of nonan-2-one at 25°C was 0.624 mmHg = 83.2 Pa.
