From the measured data points of the vapour pressure curve the constants A and B of the Antoine equation;

Log10p = A + (B/T) = A + (B/ (C +))

can be derived by regression of the data points to

A = 14.06,

B = -5448.85 and

C = 273.15.

The vapour pressure of the test material calculated by extrapolation of the measured vapour pressure curve for the temperatures 20, 25 and 50 °C is shown in Table 2.

Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this study the vapour pressure of the test material was 3.0 x10^-5 at 20 °C, 6.1 x10^-5 at 25 °C and 1.6 x10^-3 at 50 °C.
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the test material was determined in accordance with the standardised guidelines OECD 104 and EU Method A.4 under GLP conditions.

The test was performed using the effusion method with a vapour pressure balance. The vapour pressure was determined for eight temperatures in the temperature range 15 to 150 °C and in the pressure range 10^-3 to 1 Pa.The vapour pressure of the test material was calculated by extrapolation of the measured vapour pressure curve for the temperatures 20, 25 and 50 °C.

Under the conditions of this study the vapour pressure of the test material was 3.0 x10^-5 at 20 °C, 6.1 x10^-5 at 25 °C and 1.6 x10^-3 at 50 °C.
