Boiling point of 3, 3-Dimethyl-8, 9-dinorbornan-2-one is determine to be 193 Deg C.

Density:

Density of 3, 3-Dimethyl-8, 9-dinorbornan-2-one is determine to be 0.9465 g/cm3 at temperature 19 DegC.

Particle size distribution:

The study does not need to be conducted because the substance is marketed or used in a non solid or granular form. Chemical 3, 3 -Dimethyl-8, 9 -dinorbornan-2 -one physically appear as a liquid.

Vapour pressure:

Vapour pressure of 3, 3-Dimethyl-8, 9-dinorbornan-2-one is estimated to be 108.9 Pa at temperature 25 Deg c.

Partition coefficient:

Based on the available data from authoritative database, the octanol water partition coefficient (log Pow) value of the test substance 3,3-Dimethyl-8,9-dinorbornan-2-one was determined to be 3.52. Based on the experimental value, chemical 3,3 -Dimethyl-8,9 -dinorbornan-2 -one can be considered to be hydrophilic in nature.

Water solubility:

Water solubility of 3, 3-Dimethyl-8, 9-dinorbornan-2-one is estimated to be 744 mg/L at temperature 25 Deg C. From this solubility value chemical 3, 3-Dimethyl-8, 9-dinorbornan-2-one is concluded to be moderately soluble in water.

Surface tension:

In accordance with column 2 of Annex VII of the REACH regulation, the study need only be conducted if surface activity is a desired property of the chemical. 3, 3-Dimethyl-8, 9-dinorbornan-2-one (1195-79-5) is used as a flavor and fragrance agents. For this use, surface activity is not an important property. Hence this study was considered for waiver.

Flash point:

The flash point of 3,3-Dimethyl-8,9-dinorbornan-2-one is 52°C at 980.9 hPa

Auto flammability:

3,3 -Dimethyl-8,9 -dinorbornan-2 -one did not catch fire on being exposed to air at room temperature of 27°C pressure of 966 hPa. This indicates that 3,3 -Dimethyl-8,9 -dinorbornan-2 -one is not auto-flammable.

Flammability:

3,3-Dimethyl-8,9-dinorbornan-2-one does not indicate any ignition when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of approximately 950°C is brought in contact with it. Thus it can be concluded that 3,3-Dimethyl-8,9-dinorbornan-2-one is not flammable at high temperature. However since such high temperatures are not found under normal circumstances of transportation and use, thus 3,3-Dimethyl-8,9-dinorbornan-2-one was considered non-flammable for chemical safety assessment.

Explosiveness:

The study does not need to be conducted because there are no chemical groups present in the molecule which are associated with explosive properties.

Oxidizing properties:

The study does not need to be conducted because the substance is a liquid.
