The vapour pressure of pure test substance at 20 °C is 2.0E-6 kPa, equivalent to 1.5E-5 mm Hg (2.0E-8 atm). Experimental results are detailed in Table 1. No flow rate dependency was observed indicating that gas saturation had been achieved. Using Microsoft Excel version 5 linear regression was carried out on all the experimental values to produce the following equation:

lnVP = 24.51645295 - 11034.82575 (1/T) [correlation coefficient (r) of 0.9977].

Using this equation vapour pressures were interpolated within the experimental temperature range, see Table 2 in 'additional information on results'

It was demonstrated that the test substance could be quantitatively recovered from the U-tubes at the levels encountered during the actual measurements.
