Description of key information
According to all thee references (CRC, 2008; Krack, 2010; EC safety data sheet, 2009), zinc selenite appears as a white odourless inorganic powder under atmospheric pressure and room temperature.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Physical state at 20°C and 1013 hPa:
- solid
Additional information
Handbook data considered to be from a trusted source acc. to "ECHA, Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment – Chapter R.7a: Endpoint specific guidance" and therefore, the description of zinc selenite could be regarded as valid. Furthermore, the expert judgement from Krack (2010) is considered reliable without restrictions.
