Executive summary:

A study was conducted according to Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 method A.4 to determine the vapour pressure of the test item. The vapour pressure of the test item was determined at different temperatures (40 - 80 °C) using the effusion method (weight loss). The vapour pressure was calculated using the linear regression equation of the Log P versus 1/T function. The values for 20, 25 and 50 °C were calculated using the Antoine equation. The vapour pressure at 20, 25 and 50 °C was determined to be 1.1E-5, 2.8E-5 and 1.9E-3 Pa respectively.
