CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
| Physical Description | Trichlorofluoromethane appears as a clear light colored liquid. Nearly odorless. Denser than water. Poses low acute health hazard to humans. Primary hazard is to the environment. Immediate steps should be taken to limit spread to the environment. Easily penetrates the soil to contaminate groundwater and nearby waterways. |
|---|---|
| Color/Form | Volatile liquid or gas |
| Odor | In concentration of less than 20% (by volume in air), trichlorofluoromethane is odorless, in higher concentration, its odor is mild and somewhat ethereal. |

| Solubility | 10 to 50 mg/mL at 64 °F (NTP, 1992) |
| Density | 1.49 at 63 °F (NTP, 1992) - Denser than water; will sink |
| Vapor Density | 5.04 at 77 °F (NTP, 1992) - Heavier than air; will sink (Relative to Air) |
| Vapor Pressure | 792 mmHg at 77 °F (NTP, 1992) |
| LogP | log Kow = 2.53 |
| Henry's Law Constant | Henry's Law constant = 9.70X10-2 atm-cu cm/mol at 25 °C |
| Stability/Shelf Life | The product is normally stable. |
| Autoignition Temperature | Not flammable (USCG, 1999) |
| Decomposition | Decomposition products include hydrochloric acid, hydrofluoric acid, and carbonyl halides. |
| Viscosity | Gas: 0.0105 mPa.s at 24 °C; liquid: 0.43 mPa.s at 20 °C |
| Corrosivity | Liquid fluorotrichloromethane will attack some forms of plastics, rubber, and coatings. |
| Heat of Vaporization | 25.1 kJ/mol at 23.7 °C |
| Surface Tension | 18 dyn/cm at 25 °C |
| Ionization Potential | 11.77 eV |
| Odor Threshold | Odor Threshold Low: 200000.0 [mmHg] Odor threshold is 200,000 ppm (20% by volume). [CHEMINFO] VP from HSDB |
