The vapour pressure was first measured using the static method. However, this method showed an unusually low variable B. Therefore, the measurement was repeated with the effusion method. The vapour pressure was measured in the temperature range of 50 °C to 100 °C. The measured vapour pressures at the corresponding temperatures as well as the mass losses per time interval are given in Table 1. After the measurement a mass loss of approx. 7% (w/w) was determined.

The data point measured at 60 °C was not included in the linear regression because it showed a typical deviation caused by volatile impurities at the beginning of the measurement.. The values for 20, 25 and 50 °C are calculated using Antoine constants. The vapour pressure values for the test item were extrapolated from the experimental data.

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of the test item was determined according to OECD guideline 104 by effusion method using a Knudsen cell. The vapour pressure was measured in the temperature range of 50 °C to 100 °C (experimental vapour pressure at 50 °C was not evaluable). The vapour pressures for 20 °C, 25 °C and 50 °C were extrapolated from experimental data:
20 °C: 4.7 x 10E-3 Pa;
25 °C: 5.6 x 10E-3 Pa;
50 °C: 1.3 x 10E-2 Pa.
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the test item was determined according to OECD guideline 104 by effusion method using a Knudsen cell. The vapour pressure was measured in the temperature range of 50 °C to 100 °C (experimental vapour pressure at 50 °C was not evaluable). The vapour pressures for 20 °C, 25 °C and 50 °C were extrapolated from experimental data:

20 °C: 4.7 x 10E-3 Pa;

25 °C: 5.6 x 10E-3 Pa;

50 °C: 1.3 x 10E-2 Pa.
