Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Test no.:
#1
Temp.:
20 °C
Vapour pressure:
0.019 hPa
Test no.:
#2
Temp.:
25 °C
Vapour pressure:
0.036 hPa

The method is validated in the range 10-8 - 103 Pa using a set of five reference substances with known vapour pressures. The validity of the method was verified maximum one month before this study using hexachlorobenzene as reference control substance. Since the logarithm of the evaporation rate at 20°C (log vT, 20) deviated < 10% from the average value obtained during the validation test, it was possible to apply the constants obtained with the validation test for the determination of the vapour pressure of the test item.

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of the test item at 20°C and 25°C was 0.019 hPa and 0.036 hPa, respectively.
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the test item at 20°C and 25°C was 0.019 hPa and 0.036 hPa, respectively.
