Endpoint summary
Administrative data
Description of key information
Appearance:
On the basis of physical observation and using the sense of smell, castor oil, ester with sorbitol was observed to be a viscous liquid.
Freezing point:
Freezing point of castor oil, ester with sorbitol was determine to be less than-3.4 Deg C.
Boiling Point:
The boiling point of Castor oil, ester with sorbitol is determine to be 339 °C at 981.1 hPa.
Density:
Based on prediction done using ACD/I-Lab 2.0, the density of castor oil, ester with sorbitol was estimated to be 1.165 g/cm3.
Particle size distribution:
The study does not need to be conducted because the substance is marketed or used in a non solid or granular form. On the basis of physical observation and using the sense of smell, castor oil, ester with sorbitol was observed to be a viscous liquid.
Vapour pressure:
The estimated vapour pressure of Castor oil, ester with sorbitol at 25 deg C was 1.74E-9 Pa.
Partition coefficient
The partition coefficient(n-octanol/water) (logKow) of test substance Castor oil, ester with sorbitol (CAS No. 97488-70-5) was determined to be ranges from 4.4 to 4.67, respectively at 25°C. Thus, on the basis of this value, chemical Castor oil, ester with sorbitol can be considered to be hydrophobic in nature.
Water solubility:
The water solubility determination of castor oil, ester with sorbitol was done as per the shake flask method. The solubility was determine to be less than 0.01 mg/L at 25 Deg C. Thus castor oil, ester with sorbitol is considered to be insoluble in water.
Surface tension:
Based on the data from ACD labs, surface tension for castor oil, ester with sorbitol was predicted to be 0.0509 N/m.
Flash point:
The flash point of Castor oil, ester with sorbitol is determine to be greater than 160 °C at 981.1 hPa.
Auto flammability:
Castor oil, ester with sorbitol did not catch fire on being exposed to air at room temperature of 27°C pressure of 966 hPa. This indicates that Castor oil, ester with sorbitol is not auto-flammable.
Flammability:
Castor oil, ester with sorbitol does not indicate any ignition when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of approximately 950°C is brought in contact with it. Thus it can be concluded that Castor oil, ester with sorbitol is not flammable at high temperature. However since such high temperatures are not found under normal circumstances of transportation and use, thus Castor oil, ester with sorbitol was considered non-flammable.
Explosiveness:
The study does not need to be conducted because there are no chemical groups present in the molecule which are associated with explosive properties.
Oxidizing properties:
The study does not need to be conducted because the substance is a liquid.
