The vapour pressure was measured in the temperature range of 30 to 60 °C. As no reproducible mass loss was achieved at 30 °C, the evaluation of the vapour pressure was performed in the range of 35 to 60 °C. The measured vapour pressure values together with the measured temperatures and the regression data of the vapour pressure curve can be seen in Tables 1 and 2, respectively.

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of the test item was determined to be 1.318 Pa at 25 °C.
Executive summary:

An experimental study was conducted to determine the vapour pressure of the test item according to Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008 Method A.4. and OECD Test Guideline 104 (2006) using the effusion method (Knudsen cell). The vapour pressure at 20 and 25 °C was extrapolated from the linear regression of the vapour pressure curve of the measurements performed in the range of 30 to 60 °C. The vapour pressure of the test item was determined to be 0.967 Pa and 1.318 Pa at 20 and 25 °C, respectively.
