Reference
Endpoint:
Henry's law constant
Type of information:
calculation (if not (Q)SAR)
Adequacy of study:
supporting study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
accepted calculation method
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The Henry's Law Constant (HLC) was calculated using the water solubility, molecular weight and vapour pressure according to the following formula: (vapour pressure*molecular weight)/water solubility. This approach is in accordance with ECHA Guidance R.16 (2016).
GLP compliance:
no
Key result
H:
3 400 Pa m³/mol
Temp.:
20 °C
Conclusions:
The calculated Henry's Law Constant is 3400 Pa*m3/mol at 20 °C, indicating that the substance evaporates from the water surface to the atmosphere.
Executive summary:

The Henry’s Law Constant (HLC) was calculated according to the ECHA Guidance R.16 (ECHA, 2016) using the molecular weight [g/mol], water solubility [mg/L] and vapour pressure [Pa] as input parameters.

The calculation resulted in an HLC of 3400 Pa*m^3/mol, indicating that the substance has a potential to evaporate from the water phase to the atmospheric compartment.
