Description of key information

The calculated vapour pressures of the 5 aromatic sulphonic acids ranged from 1.95 to 69.8 Pa at 20°C

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Vapour pressure:
69.8 Pa
at the temperature of:
20 °C

Additional information

At 50°C, the measured vapour pressures of the 5 aromatic sulphonic acids ranged from 4.9 to 14.7 kPa. Since the measured values has been performed on 65% solutions at 35°C, to have a value to be used for the chemical safety assessment, the calculate values with EPIWIN (Modified Grain method) have been considered:

Benzene sulphonic acid: 16.7 Pa

p-Toluene sulphonic acid: 1.95 Pa

Hydroxybenzene sulphonic acid: 69.8 Pa

Xylene sulphonic acid: 27.9 Pa

Cumene sulphonic acid: 56.1 Pa

The more conservative value has been considered for risk evaluation
