|---|---|
| Color/Form | Colorless crystals or needles from trichlorobenzene |
| Melting Point | 626 °F (NTP, 1992) |
| Solubility | less than 1 mg/mL at 68 °F (NTP, 1992) |
| Vapor Pressure | 8.25X10-13 mm Hg @ 25 °C |

| Henry's Law Constant | Henry's Law constant = 6.7X10-6 atm-cu m/mole @ 25 °C /Estimated/ |
| Stability/Shelf Life | Extremely stable, even on heating to 700 °C. |
| Decomposition | When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of /hydrogen chloride/. |
| Kovats Retention Index | 3150 |
| Other Experimental Properties | /Toxic equivalency factors (TEF), indicate the toxicity of a compound relative to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin, which itself has been assigned a TEF of 1.0. Concentration data for polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins are frequently reported in units of toxic equivalency which are equal to the measured concentration of substance multiplied by its TEF./ The TEF for octachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin is 0.001. |
