Vapour pressure of 2-methylcyclohexyl acetate at 20 °C and 25 °C was calculated on the basis of equation log (P) = f (1/t) = a-b/(t+273.15) where P – vapour pressure in Pa, t – temperature in °C, obtained for five measurement points: 21.40, 23.00, 24.50, 26.00 and 28.70 °C.

The calculated values were:
