The vapour pressure regression equation of the log PT of the test item as function of the reciprocal temperatures is as follows:
log PT= -4954
´1/T + 14.75 (r = 0.997, n = 8).

Accordingly, the vapour pressure at 20°C and 25°C was calculated:

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of the test item determined according to OECD 104 was
= 7.1E-03 Pa at 20°C (293K) and
= 1.4 E-02 Pa at 25 °C.
Executive summary:

In a valid study performed according to OECD 104 compliant with GLP, the isothermal TGA effusion method was applied for the determination of the vapour pressure of the test item Bis(hexamethylene)triamine. The weight losses of the test item were obtained at temperatures above the melting temperature of the test item. According to this, the vapour pressure of the test item (which was, according to the method, extrapolated to 20°C and 25°C) might be slightly overestimated and is therefore reported as a < value.

 

The vapour pressure of the test item at 20°C (293K) was < 7.1E-03 Pa and at 25 °C < 1.4 E-02 Pa.

Additional information

In a valid study performed according to OECD 104 compliant with GLP, the isothermal thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) effusion method was applied for the determination of the vapour pressure of the test itemBis(hexamethylene)triamine. The weight losses of the test item were obtained at temperatures above the melting temperature of the test item. According to this, the vapour pressure of the test item (which was, according to the method, extrapolated to 20°C and 25°C) might be slightly overestimated and is therefore reported as a = value.

 

The vapour pressure of the test item at 20°C (293K) was= 7.1E-03 Pa and at 25 °C = 1.4 E-02 Pa.
