Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusions:
At 20 oC the vapour pressure of sodium formate is calculated to be 1x10-5 Pa (Modified Grain method) and 2.9x10-6 Pa (Antoine method).
Executive summary:

As the melting point of the test item was measured to be ≥200 oC (258 oC) it is acceptable to provide a vapour pressure value based on a recognised calculation method. At 20 oC the vapour pressure of sodium formate is calculated to be 1x10-5 Pa (Modified Grain method) and 2.9x10-6 Pa (Antoine method).

Description of key information

As the melting point of the test item was measured to between 200 and 300 oC (258 oC), it is acceptable to provide a vapour pressure value based on a recognised calculation method. At 20 oC the vapour pressure of sodium formate is calculated to be 1x10-5 Pa (Modified Grain method) and 2.9x10-6 Pa (Antoine method).
