Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of the substance at 20°C and 25°C was determined to be 2.0E2 Pa and 3.2E2 Pa, resp.
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the substance was determined using the isothermal thermogravimetric effusion method in a GLP study based on EC A.4, OECD 104 and OPPTS 830.7950. Validation of the method was performed using a set of five reference substances.

The experiment was performed in duplicate. The vapour pressure curve (log PT as function of 1/T; with T in K) of the substance was constructed from weight losses measured at 20°C, 30°C, 40°C and 50°C. The vapour pressure of the substance at 20°C and 25°C was calculated from the vapour pressure curve to be 2.0E2 Pa and 3.2E2 Pa, resp.
