Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

The main component DIPE has a high Henry’s law constant at 20°C: the measured value for DIPE is 173 Pa m3/mol or 0.0709 (dimensionless). The estimated value for 2-methylpent-2-ene is > 20000 Pa m3/mol or > 8 (dimensionless). An overall Henry’s law constant (H) calculated from the parameters used for exposure assessment is 420 Pa m3/mol (at 20°C).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Henry's law constant (H) (in Pa m³/mol):

Additional information

The main component DIPE has a high Henry’s law constant at 20°C: the measured value for DIPE is 173 Pa m3/mol or 0.0709 (dimensionless) [1]. The estimated value for 2-methylpent-2-ene is > 20000 Pa m3/mol or > 8 (dimensionless) using the HENRYWIN (v3.20) routine of Episuite [2] or equation R.16-4 of the TGD IR & CSA R16, 2010. An overall Henry’s law constant (H) calculated from the parameters used for exposure assessment is 420 Pa m3/mol (at 20°C).

According to the TGD IR & CSA R7a (2008, p.191), chemicals with H values around 100 Pa m3/mol are considered to volatilise rapidly.
