The vapour pressure of piperonyl butoxide was determined by coating non-radiolabeled piperonyl butoxide onto purified white sand, volatilizing the test material from the sand at 60°C at 5mL/min, trapping the volatilized material using SPICE C18 resin traps and employing HPLC analysis to determine the amount of material volatilized.

Vapour pressure at 25°C is calculated to be less than 0.0000133 Pa.

Conclusions:
The vapor pressure of substance was determined at 60°C using the gas-saturation technique. The average vapor pressure at each temperature was determined by averaging the results of the three separate test systems using a low (≈ 5mL/min) flow rate. The vapor pressure of substance at 60°C was determined to be 2.11*10^-5 Pa. The vapor pressure at 25°C will be less than 1.33*10^-5 Pa.

Description of key information
