Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 thermal effects could be detected up to the maximum test temperature of 300 °C only at approx. 250 °C buildup of pressure was observed.

The vapour pressure was measured in the temperature range of 21.7 to 91.0 °C. From the measured data points of the vapour pressure curve can be derived by regression. The vapour pressure of the test item was calculated by extrapolation of the measured vapour pressure curve for the temperatures 20, 25 and 50 °C.

From the measured data points of the vapour pressure curve the constants A, B and C of the Antoine

equation

log10 p = A + ( B / (C + T) )

can be derived by regression (Microsoft Excel) of the data points to

A = 10.1328

B = -1905.90

C = 273.15

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of the test item was calculated to be 42.8 at 20°C, 55.0 at 25°C and 171.8 hPa at 50°C, by extrapolation of the measured vapour pressure curve (by Vapour-Liquid equilibrium(VLE).
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the test item was calculated by interpolation and extrapolation of the measured vapour pressure curve for the temperatures 20, 25 and 50 °C, according to Regulation EC 440/2008 Method A.4.
