Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 of the substance is <1.3E-08 Pa at 20°C
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the substance was determined using the isothermal thermogravimetric effusion method. As the results obtained were outside the validation interval of the method, it was concluded that the vapour pressure is smaller than the vapour pressure of the reference compound benzo(ghi)perylene. Thus the vapour pressure of the substance is <1.3E-08 Pa at 20°C.

Description of key information

The vapour pressure of the substance was determined using the isothermal thermogravimetric effusion method. As the results obtained were outside the validation interval of the method, it was concluded that the vapour pressure is smaller than the vapour pressure of the reference compound benzo(ghi)perylene. Thus the vapour pressure of the substance is <1.3E-08 Pa at 20°C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

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

Additional information

For risk assessment purposes the value is set at the minimum validated value in the EUSES program (1E-06 Pa).
