The Henry's law constant of dimethyl sulphoxide

Abstract
The partial pressure of dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) was measured above the pure liquid and aqueous DMSO solutions at various temperatures between 7 and 35°C. These measurements yielded an expression for the dimensioned Henry's law constant of DMSO as a function of temperature: KH = 136600–1570 T°C (mol kg‐1atm‐1. The Henry's Law constant at 15 °C was measured as 1.17 ±0.02 × 105 mol kg‐1 atm‐1. Despite the solubility of DMSO in water, this result suggests that the solubility is too low for atmospheric DMSO to partition predominantly into the aqueous aerosol.
