Weight loss in the range of 50 °C and 80 °C was not reliable for the determination of the vapour pressure because the coefficient of correlation R < 0.99 (i.e. 0.96). From 90 °C upwards non-linear weight loss was observed, indicating reaction and/or decomposition.

Since no reliable vapour pressure could be calculated from the results obtained in the range of 50 °C and 80 °C, the weight losses were compared with the results of naphthalene. Since the weight loss of the test material was lower than the weight loss of the reference compound the vapour pressure of the test material is considered to be lower than that of naphthalene.

Conclusions:
Under the conditions of the test the vapour pressure of the test material at 20 °C (293K) was < 7.6 Pa and at 25 °C (298K) was < 12 Pa.
Executive summary:

The vapour of the test material was assessed according to EC Guideline A.4., OECD Guideline 104 and EPA Guideline OPPTS 830.7950 in accordance with the principles of GLP using isothermal thermogravimetry effusion method.

Weight loss in the range of 50°C and 80 °Cwas not reliable for the determination of the vapour pressure because the coefficient of correlation R < 0.99 (i.e. 0.96). From 90°Cupwardsnon-linear weight loss was observed, indicating reaction and/or decomposition. Since no reliable vapour pressure could be calculated from the results obtained in the range of 50°C and 80 °C, the weight losses were compared with the results of naphthalene. Since theweight loss of the test material was lower than the weight loss of the reference compound the vapour pressure of the test material is considered to belower than that ofnaphthalene.

Under the conditions of the test the vapour pressure of the test material at 20 °C (293K) was < 7.6 Pa and at 25 °C (298K) was < 12 Pa.

Additional information

The vapour of the test material was assessed according to EC Guideline A.4., OECD Guideline 104 and EPA Guideline OPPTS 830.7950 in accordance with the principles of GLP using isothermal thermogravimetry effusion method. The study was assigned a reliability score of 1 in accordance with the principles for assessing data quality as outlined by Klimisch et al. (1997).

Weight loss in the range of 50°C and 80 °Cwas not reliable for the determination of the vapour pressure because the coefficient of correlation R < 0.99 (i.e. 0.96). From 90°Cupwardsnon-linear weight loss was observed, indicating reaction and/or decomposition. Since no reliable vapour pressure could be calculated from the results obtained in the range of 50°C and 80 °C, the weight losses were compared with the results of naphthalene. Since theweight loss of the test material was lower than the weight loss of the reference compound the vapour pressure of the test material is considered to belower than that ofnaphthalene.

Under the conditions of the test the vapour pressure of the test material at 20 °C (293K) was < 7.6 Pa and at 25 °C (298K) was < 12 Pa.
