Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure determined at 293.15 K was 5.6 Pa.
Executive summary:

Vapour pressures of paradimethoxybenzene (CAS : 150-78-7) were measured. Product purity was 99.5%.

A static method, specially developed for very low pressures was used as suggested by OCDE’s guidelines (chemicals measurement n°104).

Vapour pressures were measured at 4 temperatures in the temperature range [323 – 293] K. Data were checked with the ANTOINE law.

The vapour pressure determined at 293.15 K was 0.042 mmHg ( 5.6 Pa ).

Description of key information

The vapor pressure from experimental study was 5.6 Pa at 20°C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

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

Additional information

The experimental study (Processium 2007, OECD 104, GLP) was selected as key study.
