Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The vapour pressure of the test material has been determined to be 3.8 x 10-4 Pa at 25ºC.
- Executive summary:
Method
The vapour pressure was determined using a vapour pressure balance withasurents being made at several temperatures and linear regression analysis used to calculate the vapour pressure at 25°C. Testing was conducted using Method A4 Vapour Pressure of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008.
Procedure
The vapour pressure was determined using a vapour pressure balance. The temperature of the sample was controlled electronically. The mass and temperature readings were recorded automatically into a computer file.
A diagram of the cross-section of the vapour pressure balance is represented in attached Figure 4.1. After evacuating the system, opening the shutter above the sample oven causes the escaping vapour jet to be directed at the scale pan. The difference in mass readings with the orifice covered and uncovered is proportional to the vapour pressure at the given oven temperature.
A sequence of runs was started after a sample of test material had been under vacuum for approximately 68 hours. Temperature and pressure readings were taken between 100 and 110 ºC with a one hour dwell at 100 ºC between runs.Summary of Results

Discussion
The unshaded points on the graphshave not been used when plotting the line. It is quite common for the first point of a run to be non linear as the system equilibrates after the dwell time.
Conclusion
The vapour pressure of the test material has been determined to be 3.8 x 10-4 Pa at 25ºC.
