Description of key information
The vapour pressure of 1,6-dichlorohexane was calculated to be 17.38 Pa at 25°C.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Vapour pressure:
- 11.3 Pa
- at the temperature of:
- 20 °C
Additional information
No experimental data for the vapour pressure of 1,6-dichlorohexane is available. Thus, as recommended in the guidance on Information requirements and Chemical Safety Assessment Chapter R7A endpoint specific guidance the vapour pressure of 1,6-dichlorohexane was calculated using the Antoine´s Equation and the ACD Labs software. Both calculation methods report comparable values for vapour pressure. The coefficients for Antoine´s Equation were taken from the Yaw's Handbook of Antoine Coefficients for Vapour pressure and from Reaxys (Vapour Pressure ad Enthalpy and Entropy of Evaporation of the C6 -C8 an C10 alpha-omega-Dichloro-n-alkanes. The soures are regarded as reliable and the calculations are comprehensible. Thus, the calculation with the Antoine´s Equation was chosen as key parameter.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
