Linear regression analysis of log P(T,20) and log v(T,20) using the least squares method yielded an equation of log P(T) = 1.14 × log v(T) + 4.55. The coefficient of correlation (r) was > 0.99. This equation was used to determine log P(T) values for the test substance at elevated temperatures. Linear regression analysis of the log P(T) values and 1/T was performed using a least squares method. The vapour pressure of the test substance at 20°C and 25°C were determined using the vapour pressure regression curve. The equation of the curve was: log P(T) = -4095 ×1/T + 10.83 (r = 0.995, n = 6).

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of MTDID 15670 is 7.2E-04 Pa (5.4E-06 mm Hg) at 20 °C and 1.2E-03 Pa (9.3E-06 mm Hg) at 25 °C as determined by EU Method A.4.
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the test substance was determined by the isothermal thermogravimetric effusion method. The weight loss of the sample was measured at three isothermal points between 140 and 170 °C. Weight loss rate at each temperature was converted to vapour pressure and entered into linear regression analysis vs. temperature. The resulting equation was log P(T) = -4095 ×1/T + 10.83 (r = 0.995). The calculated vapour pressures are therefore those of the subcooled liquid, with the solid having a lower vapour pressure. The test was done according to EU Method A.4 “Vapour pressure” and in accord with GLP guidelines; however due to the fact that the study was conducted above the substance melting point and provided the vapor pressure of the subcooled liquid rather than the solid material, the study is considered reliable with restrictions.
