Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

’mean value of triplicate measurements
*not used for test evaluation, strongly fluctuating vapour pressure at constant temperatures
**not used for test evaluation, low-temperature readings during cooling-down process

Calculated pressure at 20 °C: 4.3E-03 Pa


After measurement completion, the test item inside the furnace looked unchanged. Residues of the test item were found under the lid. It is possible that due to these residues congestions of the apertures during the measurements occurred, leading to wring test results, especially at higher temperatures.

Therefore, the result measured at 50 °C was taken as the basis for the test evaluation instead of the value resulting from the mathematical extrapolation (Antoine equation). This value must be regarded as a maximum value, the real value is probably lower.

Conclusion: Vapour pressure (20 °C): < 4E-04 hPa

Description of key information

< 4.0E-02 Pa at 20 °C (OECD 104, based on measurement at 50 °C)


Key value for chemical safety assessment

Vapour pressure:
0.04 Pa
at the temperature of:
50 °C

Additional information

4.0E-02 Pa at 20 °C (OECD 104, calculated by mathematical extrapolation using Antonie equation). However due to the residues congestions of the apertues during the measurements occurred, the calculated value is not reliable. Therefore the test result measured at 50 °C was taken as a maximum value for the vapour pressure of test substance at 20 °C.
