- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- accepted calculation method
- Justification for type of information:
- Internationally accepted calculation method, EPI-Suite EPA (USA): MPBPVP (v1.43)
- Qualifier:
- no guideline available
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- MPBPWIN estimates vapor pressure (VP) by three separate methods: (1) the Antoine method, (2) the modified Grain method, and (3) the Mackay method. All three use the normal boiling point to estimate VP. Unless the user enters a boiling point on the data entry screen, MPBPWIN uses the estimated boiling point from the adapted Stein and Brown method.
