The logarithm of the vapour pressure was plotted as a function of the inverse temperature 1/T. From the measured data points of the vapour pressure curve the constants A and B of the Antoine equation


can be derived by regression of the data points to


A = 16.0327


B = -6031.48


C = 273.15.


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.

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of the test item was found to be 6.4 x 10-5 Pa at 25 °C.
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the test item was determined using the Effusion method: Knudsen cell according to OECD Test Guideline 104 (2006). The vapour pressure was determined at 61, 66, 71, 76 and 81 °C. The logarithm of the vapour pressure was plotted as a function of the inverse temperature 1/T. The vapour pressure at 20, 25 and 50 °C was determined by linear regression of the measured values. The vapour pressure of the test item was found to be 2.9 × 10-5, 6.4 x 10-5  and 2.3 × 10-3 Pa at 20, 25 and 50 °C.
