Executive summary:

Introduction

Dtermination of the vapour pressure of the test item was done according to OCDE 104 resp. EU A.4.

Method

The method is based on the estimation of the mass of test substance flowing out per unit of time of a Knudsen cell in the form of vapour, through a micro-orifice under ultra-vacuum conditions. The mass of effused vapour can be obtained either by determining the loss of mass of the cell or by condensing the vapour at low temperature and determining the amount of volatilized substance using chromatography. The vapour pressure is calculated by applying the Hertz-Knudsen relation with correction factors that depend on parameters of the apparatus.

Conclusion

The test item has a calculated vapour pressure:

2.90E-03 Pa at 20°C

6.1E-03 Pa at 25°C
