Principles of method if other than guideline:
The measurements were performed with an apparatus which was specially developed for accurate measurements of the saturated-liquid and saturated-vapour densities of pure substances together with the vapour pressure along the whole coexistence curve. Moreover, the apparatus is also suitable for density measurements of the homogeneous gas or liquid phase including the largest part of the critical region. The principle of density measurement is based on a new compensation buoyancy-method using two sinkers instead of the usual single sinker ("Two-Sinker Method"). The essential details of the apparatus were given in a previous paper (Kleinrahm and Wagner, J.Chem. Thermodynamics 1986, 18, 739). Up to now this apparatus has been used for comprehensive measurements of methane and of carbon dioxide.

Conclusions:
The study focuses on the pressure, density, temperature) relations of dichlorodifluoromethane (R12) and of chlorodifluoromethane (R22) in parts of the homogeneous gas and liquid regions and on the coexistence curve of the substance.

The study details vapour pressures over a wide range of temperatures for the substance. The value quoted in this summary is an average value of the two pressures presented at 300 K of 0.683773 and 0.683824 MPa respectively. These values match with other data available and is considered appropriate for use on the basis of a weight of evidence approach.

Principles of method if other than guideline:
The static equilibrium apparatus and the procedures used for this work are described by Kang and Lee (1996). The equilibrium temperature was measured with a T-type thermocouple converter (Yokogawa Elec. Corp., model STED-210-TT*B) having an accuracy of +/- 0.1 °C. The equilibrium pressure was determined by a gauge pressure transmitter (Yokogawa Elec. Corp., model UNE43-SAS3*B) and a barometer having accuracies of +/- 0.5 kPa and +/- 0.05 kPa, respectively.
The mass of each component introduced into the cell was determined with a digital balance having an accuracy of +/-0.01 g. The compositions of the vapor phase were not measured. The compositions of the liquid phase were calculated from the total composition by correction for the mass of each component existing in the vapor phase. The densities of the both phases were estimated by using the Peng-Robinson equation of state (1976) with the binary interaction parameters obtained by data reduction of the experimental data. Factors affecting the accuracy of the liquid-phase mole fractions would be the accuracy of the masses of each component introduced into the cell and the estimated densities of both phases. The effect of 10% errors in the estimated densities for the liquid and the vapor phase gives an error of approximately 0.0001 and 0.0005 in the respective mole fraction. The estimated accuracy of the liquid-phase composition was +/- 0.001.

Additional information

Five references are available for review. The reference values closely matches the registrants experience of the substance and is considered suitable for use, on the basis of a weight of evidence approach. The value at 20 deg C is chosen as the most appropriate one for use in the assessment process, as this closely matches values obtained from the other studies.
