Vapour pressure0.00263 Pa at 20 °C (0.0026 Pa)
Relative VP bandvery_low

The Pa value is a unit conversion only, not a temperature normalisation. VP band and molecular weight are not translated into evaporation hours.

At 20 °C, a vapor pressure of 0.00263 Pa (≈ 2.630e-3 Pa) was reported; relative physical band class: very_low. This is not a prediction of evaporation time, odor strength, diffusion, or skin/blotter duration.
