Conclusions:
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 No. 440/2008 Method A.4. Vapour Pressure. It was extrapolated to be 0.05 hPa at 20 °C, 0.08 hPa at 25 °C and 0.54 hPa at 50 °C.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted according to OECD TG 104, Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 method A.4 and OPPTS 830.7950 to determine the vapour pressure of the test item. A vapour pressure curve with 9 data points was measured over a pressure range between 23 to 75 hPa. For control 3 measuring points were evaluated with decreasing pressure. The vapour pressure was measured in the temperature range of 115.6 to 141.8 °C. From the measured data points of the vapour pressure curve the constants A, B and C of the Antoine equation were derived and 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 No. 440/2008 Method A.4. The vapour pressure was determined to be 0.05 hPa at 20 °C, 0.08 hPa at 25 °C and 0.54 hPa at 50 °C, respectively.
