Description of key information
Appearance/ Physical state:
On the basis of visual perceptual property, the chemical was observed to be clear, colourless organic liquid in appearance.
Melting point:
The Freezing point determination of test chemical was done using crushed ice and salt bath. The determination was done on the basis of cooling curve (time vs temperature) obtained when the test chemical was placed in the cooling bath. No crystallization was observed up to -14.3°C. Hence, the freezing point was concluded to be less than -14.3 °C at 977.1 hPa.
Boiling point:
The boiling point determination of test chemical was done following OECD Guideline 103 and according to the method of Siwoloboff. The test was conducted in replicates and mean boiling point was observed to be 238 °C at 978.1hPa.
Density:
The density of test chemical was determined following OECD Guideline 109 and according to the IS 4730: 1994 (Reaffirmed 2010) – Method for Determination of Density of Liquids (First Revision) using glass pyknometer. The density of the test chemical was determined to be 1.004g/cm3 at 20 °C and 976.2hPa.
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.
Vapour pressure:
Based on the data obtained from the peer reviewed journals, the vapour pressure of the test substance was determined to be 6.5061 Pa which is equal to 0.0488 mm Hg at 25 °C.
Partition coefficient:
The partition Coefficient n-octanol/water of test chemical was determined by the Reverse Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatographic method according to OECD Guideline No. 117 for testing of Chemicals. The reference substances were chosen according to structural similarity with the test substance. The reference substances were 4-Methoxy phenol, benzene, Toluene, Ethyl benzene, biphenyl, n butyl benzene having Pow value ranging from 1.3 to 4.6. The Log Pow value was found to be 3.127± 0.001 at 25°C.
Water solubility:
Based on the data obtained from the various reliable sources, the water solubility of the test chemical was determined to be 136 mg/l.
Surface tension:
Data was estimated for the determination of surface tension of test chemical. The estimated surface tension of test chemical was 35.6±3.0 dyne/cm.
Flash point:
The flash point determination of test chemical was done following closed cup method using Pensky-Martens Flash Point Apparatus. The test was conducted in replicates and mean flash point was determined to be 94 °C at 976.0 hPa.
Auto-flammability:
Test chemical did not catch fire on being exposed to air at room temperature of 27°C pressure of 966 hPa. This indicates that test chemical was not auto-flammable.
Flammability:
Flash point of test substance was determined to be 94 °C at 976.0 hPa. On the basis of GHS classification criteria, test chemical has flash point greater than 60°C hence the test chemical was considered to be nonflammable.
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.
Oxidising property:
The study does not need to be conducted because the organic substance contains oxygen or halogen atoms which are chemically bonded only to carbon or hydrogen and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied.
Viscosity:
The viscosity determination of test chemical was done as per the test guideline OECD 114 using Redwood Viscometer No. 1. Based on the study, the kinematic viscosity (experimental) of test chemical at 20 °C and 40 °C was determined to be at 15.655mm2/sec and 14.678 mm2/s , respectively, whereas the dynamic viscosity (calculated) of test chemical at 20 °C and 40 °C was determined to be 15.717mPa.S and 14.736mPa.S, respectively.
