Conclusions:

The isothermal TGA effusion method was applied for the determination of the vapour pressure of Lowinox® 22IB46.
The vapour pressure of the test item at 20°C (293K) and 25°C (298K) was:
20°C 25°C
[Pa] [mm Hg] [Pa] [mm Hg]
Test item ≤ 2.5 x 10-6 ≤ 1.9 x 10-8 ≤ 6.2 x 10-6 ≤ 4.7 x 10-8
The weight losses of the test item were obtained with a temperature program partly above the melting temperature of a small fraction of the test item. According to this, the vapour pressure of the test item (which was, according to the method, extrapolated to 20°C and 25°C) could be slightly overestimated.

Executive summary:

The purpose of the study was to determine the physico-chemical properties for Lowinox® 22IB46.

 

The vapour pressure of the test item (P_T) was determined by the isothermal thermogravimetric effusion method, in accordance with the following guidelines:

European Community (EC), EC no. 761/2009, Part A: Methods for the Determination of Physico-Chemical Properties, Guideline A.4: “Vapour Pressure", Official Journal of the European Union no. L220, August 24, 2009.

The weight losses of the test item were obtained with a temperature program partly above the melting temperature of a small fraction of the test item. According to this, the vapour pressure of the test item (which was, according to the method, extrapolated to 20°C and 25°C) could be slightly overestimated.
