Qualifier:

Guideline:

Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Software tool(s) used including version: EPI Suite v4.11
- Model(s) used: Mpbpwin Model version 1.43
The model estimates vapour pressure by three different methods:
- the Antoine equation (Lyman WJ, Reehl WF and Rosenblatt DH. 1990. Handbook of Chemical Property Estimation Methods. Washington, DC: American Chemical Society);
- the Modified Grain Method (Lyman WJ. 1985. In: Environmental Exposure From Chemicals. Volume I. Neely WB and Blau GE (eds). Boca Raton, FL: CRC Press, Inc., Chapter 2);
- the Mackay Method (Lyman WJ. 1985. In: Environmental Exposure From Chemicals. Volume I. Neely WB and Blau GE (eds). Boca Raton, FL: CRC Press, Inc.).
MPBPWIN selects a “suggested” vapour pressure: the modified Grain for solids and the average of the Antoine and the modified Grain for liquids and gases.
A dataset of 3037 compounds with experimentally determined vapour pressure values has been used to evaluate the model (using the “suggested” values as outcome), giving a correlation coefficient of 0.914. The evaluation clearly shows that the model reliability decrease for vapour pressure below 0.0001 Pa.
The dataset contains 1642 compounds with available experimental Boiling points and Melting points. The correlation coefficient evaluated on this subset (0.949) indicates that VP estimates are more accurate when experimental BP and MP are available.

Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The vapour pressure was determined by extrapolation using the Clausius-Clapeyron formula.
Vapour pressure at different temperatures were measured using a distillation method according to BS4591, Method A.2 Boiling Temperature of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and in accordance with Method 103 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 27 July 1995.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
other: distillation method, associated with pressure measurement.

Any other information on results incl. tables

The results are shown in the following table:

 

Observed vapor pressure

Test 1

48 Pa (352.45 K)

Test 2

80 Pa (361.35 K)

Test 3

108 Pa (368.15 K)

 

By the least-squares method fitting, the values of Clausius-Clapeyron formula were obtained:

 

Log10 P = -2926.3 * (1/(t+273.15)) + 9.989

(R² = 0.9965)

 

P: vapor pressure (Pa)

t: temperature (°C)

 

By the formula, the extrapolated vapor pressure at 20 °C is 1 Pa.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of the substance has been determined to be 1 Pa at 20 °C.
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the test material has been determined to be 48 Pa at 352.45 K, 80 Pa at 361.35 K, 108 Pa at 368.15 K.

The extrapolated vapor pressure at 20 °C is 1 Pa.

 

The following QSAR-estimated vapour pressure values are taken as supporting information for the low vapour pressure of the substance.

- VP = 5.81E-5 Pa at 20 °C (ARChem SPARC v4.6)

- VP = 8.17E-4 Pa at 25 °C (EPI Suite v4.11 / Mpbpwin Model v1.43 - Modified Grain Method)
