Log10 ρ = A +  B / ( C + θ )

 

A = 10.4799

B = -2733.79

C = 273.15.

 

 

Final Results

The vapour pressure of the test item was calculated by interpolation and 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.
