Results of the gas saturation experiments at 50°C

The experiments at 50°C were performed using three flow rates (2.00 L/min, 1.00 L/min and 0.20 L/min) during approximately 12 (experiment no.1) or 7 days (experiment no.3). Flow rate, pressure and temperature were checked and recorded 5 (no. 1) or 3 (no. 3) times in that period. The collected vapor was desorbed from the traps with acetonitrile. The amount of test substance in the eluent was determined by GC method.

The results of the measurements are summarized in the following table:

* At flow rate of 1.00 L/min there was a leakage in the test equipment. Therefore, only the results of experiment 1 and 3 were used for the calculation.

Results of the gas saturation experiments at 40°C

The experiments at 40°C were performed using three flow rates (2.00 L/min, 1.00 L/min and 0.20 L/min) during approximately 13 days. Flow rate, pressure and temperature were checked and recorded 9 times in that period. The collected vapor was desorbed from the traps with acetonitrile. The amount of test substance in the eluent was determined by GC method.

Results of the gas saturation experiments at 30°C

The experiments at 30°C were performed using three flow rates (2.00 L/min, 1.00 L/min and 0.20 L/min) during approximately 7 days. Flow rate, pressure and temperature were checked and recorded 4 times in that period. The collected vapor was desorbed from the traps with acetonitrile.

Conclusion of the gas saturation experiments

In a Clausius-Clapeyron plot, the logarithm of the vapor pressure is plotted as a function of the inverse temperature. The vapor pressure of the test substance at 25°C can be estimated by extrapolation using the trendline that describes the vapor pressure as function of T. The vapor pressure at 25°C is calculated to be 2.9 x 10-6 Pa.

Executive summary:

The gas saturation method as outlined in the OECD guideline 104 was used to ascertain the vapor pressure of the test material. The vapor pressure of the test substance at 25°C was estimated by extrapolation using the trendline that described the vapor pressure as function of T. The vapor pressure at 25°C is calculated to be 2.9 x 10-6 Pa.
