Key result
Temp.:
20 °C
Vapour pressure:
20 Pa

Because the measured vapour pressures were > 0.1 Pa, no correction for thermal transpiration was made.

The test substance was considered to show ideal behaviour. Thus, the vapour pressure curve was derived by using a least squares method to calculate a straight line that best fits the measured data (Clapeyron). The vapour pressure at 20°C was extrapolated from the vapour pressure curve. The three test temperatures, in degrees Celsius (°C), are also expressed in degrees kelvin (K). Temperature in Kelvin = Temperature in °C +273.15.

Conclusions:
Using the Static Technique, the vapour pressure of Phytosphingosine at 20°C was determined to be:
0.20 ± 0.03 Pa = (1.5 ± 0.2)x10^-3 mm Hg
Executive summary:

The determination of the vapour pressure was performed in accordance with the following guidelines: OECD guidelines for Testing chemicals, Guideline No.104: "Vapour pressure curve", July 27, 1995.

Using the Static Technique, the vapour pressure of Phytosphingosine at 20°C was determined to be: 0.20 ± 0.03 Pa = (1.5 ± 0.2)x10^-3 mm Hg.
