Description of key information
Appearance:
Based on available data from reliable sources such as authoritative database and handbook,the chemical Butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acid was observed to be an organic white coloured powder or leaflets from water in appearance.
Melting point:
Based on available data from reliable handbook,the melting point of chemical Butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acid was determined to be 236.5 degree C.
Boiling point:
Based on the prediction done using the EPI Suite MPVPBP V1.43,the Boiling point of chemicalButane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acidwas predicted.
The boiling point of chemicalButane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acidwas estimated to be 464.52˚C
Density:
Based on prediction done using ACD/I-Lab 2.0,the density of substance Butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acid was estimated to be 1.674±0.06 g/cm3 at 20 degree C
Particle size distribution:
The particle size distribution of Butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acidwas determined by granulometric analysis with rotap sieve shaker. The particle size distribution was determined to be in the range of 150 micron to 53 micron.
Vapour pressure:
Modified Grain method (Mean of Antoine and Modified Grain methods) was used to estimate the vapour pressure of the substanceButane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acidusing MPBPVP v1.43 of EPI SUITE.
The estimated vapour pressure of the substanceButane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acidat 25deg C was4.52E-007 Pa
Partition Coefficient:
The octanol water partition coefficient of test chemical butane-1, 2, 3, 4-tetracarboxylic acid ( CAS no. 1703 -58 -8) is -1.41. Considering this value it is concluded that this test chemical is hydrophilic.
Water solubility:
Based on available data from various reliable sources such as authoritative databases,the water solubility of chemical Butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acid determined to be greater than or equal to 100000 mg/L at 19 degree C,indicating that the test chemical is very soluble in water.
Surface tension:
Based on the prediction done using ACD labs, the surface tension of chemical Butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acid was predicted to be 91.3 ± 3.0 dyne/cm
Flash point:
Based on the Calculation done using scientifically verified and validated formulas / equations ,the flash point of chemical Butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acid was estimated to be 266.210 degree C.
Auto flammability:
Butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acid did not catch fire on being exposed to air at room temperature of 27°C pressure of 966 hPa. This indicates that Butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acid is not auto-flammable.
Flammability:
Butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acid 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 sodium Butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acid is not flammable at high temperature. However since such high temperatures are not found under normal circumstances of transportation and use, thus Butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acid 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.
Oxidising properties:
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
