Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

no
Qualifier:

The offset value (mean DCR) was 7.2075 x 10-8 s-1 at 20°C.  This value was based on the average deceleration rate measured with an empty sample chamber.


The mean measured background vapor pressure of the system by the SRG method was  4.27x 10‑5 Pa at 20°C.


The mean measured vapor pressure of the reference substance, benzoic acid, by the SRG method was 6.12 x 10‑2 Pa at 20°C.  The vapor pressures were consistent with published values.


The system offset pressure using a molecular weight of 999 g/mol was 3.0993 x 10-5, while the calculated system offset pressure using a molecular weight of 598 and 1671 g/mol was 4.0059 x 10-5 Pa and 2.3964 x 10-5 Pa, respectively. 

Conclusions:
The vapor pressure of the sample and heated sample was determined at 20°C using the spinning rotor gauge (SRG) method. The mean measured vapor pressures of both samples at 20°C by the SRG method using molecular weights of 598 and 1671 g/mol were less than recommend range of the SRG method.
Executive summary:

The objective of this study was to experimentally determine the vapor pressure of the test item at 20 ± 1°C.


The test was performed based on procedures in the OECD Guideline 104 and the U.S. EPA Product Properties Test Guidelines, OPPTS 830.7950 according to GLP.


The vapor pressure of an aliquot test item and an aliquot of test item heated to between 60 and 70°C (to remove potential low molecular and volatile impurities from the synthesis process) for at least one hour was determined at 20°C using the spinning rotor gauge (SRG) method.  The mean measured vapor pressures at 20°C by the SRG method were less than the recommend range of the SRG method (10-4).
