- Executive summary:
A study was performed to determine the vapour pressure of the test item. The method followed was designed to be compliant with the OECD guideline for the Testing of Chemicals No. 104, "Vapour pressure" (2006), 23 March 2006 and Commission Regulation No 440/2008 on test methods, Method A.4 (last Adaptation to Technical Progress by Commission Regulation (EU) 2019/1390 of 31 July 2019, with no update to the A1 method since 2009). As the test item’s prediction for vapour pressure was 0.45 Pa at 25°C (EpiSUITE prediction), the Knudsen effusion method was conducted.
In this method, the mass of the 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 was determined at various specified temperatures (from 22.9°C to 47.4°C). The Hertz-Knudsen equation was used to calculate the vapour pressure corresponding to the mass loss rate.
The Log10 (Vapour Pressure (Pa)) was plotted against 1/T (K) and a linear function was obtained. With this equation, the vapour pressure has been calculated for temperatures of 20°C and 25°C.Three trials were conducted and five points were recorded for each trial.
Log10 (Vapour Pressure (Pa)) was plotted against reciprocal temperature and values of vapour pressure were calculated at 20°C and 25°C with the linear function parameters (slope and intercept):Trial Vapour pressure at 293.15 K Vapour pressure at 298.15 K 1 0.97 Pa 1.57 Pa 2 0.59 Pa 1.05 Pa 3 0.48 Pa 0.92 Pa Mean from trials 2 and 3 0.54 Pa 0.99 Pa Calculated values from trials 2 and 3 respect validity criteria (less than 20% of difference) and the linear functions obtained own a correlation coefficient R² over 0.95.
In conclusion, the mean vapour pressure of test item is 0.54 Pa at 20°C and 0.99 Pa at 25°C.
