Additional information

No data on the vapour pressure of the substance is available. The results from the structural analogue are used instead (for details see reporting Format as attached to section 13 in the IUCLID dossier).

The vapour pressure of the structural analogue Reaction mass of tetrasodium phosphonoethane-1,2-dicarboxylate and hexasodium-phosphonobutane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylate has been determined according the EU method A.4 of the Commission directive 84/449/EEC and the GLP.

The vapour pressure was determined using a vapour pressure balance based on a CI electronics micro-balance with a sensitivity of 0.1µg. The temperature of the sample was controlled electronically (+/- 1°C) over the range ambient to 60°C. The mass readings and temperature were recorded directly onto a 2 channel chart recorder. The vapour pressure of the sample was measured at several temperatures to yield vapour pressure curves for subsequent extrapolation to give 25°C values. Three runs from 24 to 61°C were performed.

The sample underwent degassing (presumably loss of water). Subsequent runs gave progressively lower vapour pressure values (i.e 10E-3 Pa and 5.3E-4 Pa at 25°C for runs 2 and 3) due to possible change in composition. Results from run 1 have been quoted but the results for runs 2 and 3 are probably more representative of the substance. Based on these observations, this study is considered as reliable with restrictions.
