Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The isothermal thermogravimetric effusion method was applied for the determi-nation of the vapour pressure of Isomethol.
A value of the vapour pressure of the test item was determined using the data obtained between 70 °C and 110 °C. The vapour pressure of the test item was calculated (mean of three determinations) to: 5.59 x 10-1 Pa at 20 °C.
Executive summary:

The evaluation of the vapour pressure was done with the re-producible weight loss values above ≥ 1 μg/min in the temperature range be-tween 80 °C to 110 °C (below the melting point).

The resulting equation was:

log PT=4.3781+1.0022∙log VT

Inserting the equation for log VT above, the following equation for the temperature dependence of the vapour pressure of the test item is obtained:

log PT=C+D x (a x 1000/T +b)= C+(D x b)+(D x a x 1000 )/T

(where: a = -1.9936, b =2.1834, C = 4.3781 and D = 1.0022)

With this equation, a following vapour pressure results were obtained: 5.59 x 10-1 Pa at 20 °C.
