Using the results of experiment 1 and experiment 2, the curve of log PT of the test item as function of the reciprocal temperature had a coefficient of correlation <0.99. Therefore, a third experiment was performed. The individual coefficients of correlation of the different experiments (log PT vs 1/T) were > 0.99.

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of the substance at 20°C and 25°C was determined to be ≤ 4.5E-4 Pa and ≤ 8.7E-4 Pa, resp.
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the substance was determined using the isothermal thermogravimetric effusion method in a GLP study according to EC A.4, OECD 104 and OPPTS 830.7950.

The constants specific for the experimental arrangement were determined using a set of 5 reference compounds. Vapour pressure curves for the test item was constructed from individual measurements at 110°C, 120°C, 130°C and 140°C. The highest vapour pressure value from three consecutive individual experiments was concluded as the vapour pressure. Since the weight losses of the test item were obtained with a temperature program of above the melting temperature of the test item, the vapour pressure of the test item could be slightly overestimated. The vapour pressure of the substance at 20°C and 25°C was therefore reported as ≤ 4.5E-4 Pa and ≤ 8.7E-4 Pa, resp.

 

Description of key information

The isothermal TGA effusion method was applied for the determination of the vapour pressure in three experiments.

The vapour pressure of the test item at 20°C (293K) and 25°C (298K) was:

- at 20°C: between 4.2 x 10-5 and 4.5 x 10-4 Pa ==> 2.46e-4

- at 25°C: between 9.2 x 10 -5 and 8.7 x 10 -4 Pa

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Vapour pressure:
0.001 Pa
at the temperature of:
25 °C

Additional information

The weight losses of the test item were obtained with a temperature program of above the melting temperature of the test item.  According to this, the vapour pressure of the test item (which was, according to the method, extrapolated to 20°C and 25°C) could be slightly overestimated.
