Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Any other information on results incl. tables

At temperature above 135 °C a thermal transformation of the test item is suggested due to too high vapour pressures. A re-measurement at lower pressure values shows a increase of the vapour pressure of about 10 %. The value at 140 °C (p = 300 hPa) is not included in the regression equation.

ln (p/Pa) = 103.61555-9483.6277/T-11.97866*lnT+9.54268E-06*T**2
