From the measured data points of the vapour pressure curve, the constants A, B and C of the Antoine equation were calculated:

Antoine equation:

Log10 ρ = A + B / C + θ

A = 7.9403

B = -1638.91

C = 273.15

Final results

The vapour pressure of the test item was calculated by extrapolation of the measured vapour pressure curve for the temperatures 20, 25 and 50 °C, according to Regulation EC 440/2008 Method A.4. Vapour Pressure.
