Thermal stability

The measurements showed two endothermic effects; the first in the temperature range of 30 - 85°C, and the second in the temperature range of 185 - 250°C.

Vapour pressure balance

The values for 20, 25, and 50°C were calculated, using Antoine constants (A: 6.52084, B: -4182.11, and C: 273.15).

Log (p/hPa) = A + B/(C + T(°C))

Conclusions:

Under the study conditions, the vapour pressure of the test substance was determined to be 1.8E-06, 3.1E-06 and 3.8E-05 Pa at 20, 25 and 50°C, respectively.

Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the vapour pressure of the test substance, C12-14 TMAC, according to OECD Guidelines 104 and 113, and EU Method A.4. The type of method was: "Effusion: Vapour pressure balance". Thermal stability was determined via DSC in a closed glass crucible at a heating rate of 3K/min under nitrogen. The purified test substance was filled into a furnace in the chamber from which the sample was evaporating. The temperature of the cell and of the test substance was controlled by a surrounding heater. The vapour formed a molecular jet of defined geometry limited by an orifice, which was then condensed on a plate cooled down below -100°C (with liquid nitrogen). The plate formed one end of an ultra micro balance. The pressure of the test substance was calculated from the weight increase during an elapsed time period. The values for 20, 25, and 50°C were calculated, using Antoine constants (A: 6.52084, B: -4182.11, and C: 273.15) and the equation: log (p/hPa) = A + B/(C + T(°C)). Under the study conditions, the vapour pressure was determined to be 1.8E-06, 3.1E-06 and 3.8E-05 Pa at 20, 25 and 50°C, respectively (Franke, 2002).
