Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Vapour Pressure was determined to be 0.21 kPa and 0.28 kPa at 20 and 25°C, respectively.
Executive summary:

Vapour pressure of the test substance was determined according to OECD Guideline 104. The measuring principle is equivalent to ASTM D2879-86 (isoteniscope principle) but with only 1 mL sample volume. The instrument consisted of a vacuum-sealed measuring chamber of an overall volume of 5 mL. A piezoresistive pressure transducer was integrated in the vacuum chamber. A vacuum valve was installed in the chamber for automatic outgassing of the sample. Cooling and heating was performed with a Peltier element. The vapour pressure as a function of temperature was registered in 20-100°C range in 5°C steps.

The vapour pressure curve (log p versus 1/T) was plotted. A line was fitted to the measured data (above 0.5 kPa) applying the least squares method with the help of Excel for Windows software. Based on the simplified Clausius-Clapeyron equation a regression line was fitted on the measured data and the vapour pressure was extrapolated for 20 and 25°C.

 

The vapour pressure was 0.21 kPa at 20°C and 0.28 kPa at 25°C.
