- Executive summary:
Test Guidance
The vapour pressure was determined using a vapour pressure balance with measurements being made at several temperatures. Testing was conducted using a procedure designed to be compatible with Method A4 Vapour Pressure of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2208 of 30 May 2008 and Method 104 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 23 March 2006.
Method
The vapour pressure was determined using a vapour pressure balance. The temperature of the sample was controlled electronically. The mass and temperature readings were recorded automatically into a computer file.
A preliminary run was undertaken over the temperature range 20°C to 85°C to provide information for a suitable temperature range for the determination.
25°C Determination
A sequence of runs was started after a sample of test item had been under vacuum for approximately 17.5 hours. Temperature and pressure readings were taken between 20°C and 30°C with a one hour dwell at 20°C between runs.
70°C Determination
A further sequence of runs was started after a sample of test item had been under vacuum for approximately 91.25 hours. Temperature and pressure readings were taken between 65°C and 75°C with a one hour dwell at 65°C between runs.
Result
No decomposition was observed.
The vapour pressure was found to be 9.1E-03 Pa at 25 ºC and 1.5E-02 Pa at 70 ºC
