Any other information on results incl. tables

The test item had in all experiments an inhomogenous appearance. At the first evacuation the cells bubbled over. Then, depending on temperature, some fractions were molten. The original test item was an orange suspension which changed to yellow molten mass with white deposit.

As the cells showed no reproducible weight loss at each temperature no evaluable curve was obtained. This might be caused due to the test substance is a complex mixture and/or decomposition processes. Therefore, no vapour pressure could be stated.

At 30, 45 and 60°C a significant mass loss was observed, due to bubble over.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure was determined in a study according to OECD 104 (effusion method). No reproducible results were obtained. Therefore, the vapour pressure could not be determined.
