Volatile part of the Test Item

Weight loss observed from the start of the study was due to evaporation of solvent. A representative weight loss curve of volatile part of the test item is shown in Figure 4. A non-linear weight loss was observed and the results within this range were therefore not reliable for the determination of the vapour pressure (detailed calculations archived in the raw data).

The weight loss of the volatile part of the test item at 30°C and 40°C was lower than the weight loss of the reference substance at the same temperatures. According to this the vapour pressure of the volatile part of the test item was determined to be lower than that of water. A representative weight loss curve of wateris shown in Figure 5.

The results of the vapour pressure for the test item at 20°Cand 25°Care given in Table 3.

Non-volatile part of the Test Item

A representative weight loss curve of the test item is shown in Figure 6. The results of the isothermal TGA analysis for the test item and the vapour pressure at 20°C and 25°C are given in Table 4 and Table 5.

 

The vapour pressure regression curve of the log PT of the test item as function of the reciprocal temperatures is shown in Figure 7. The equation of the curve was:
log PT= -2951´1/T + 6.94 (r = 0.991, n = 6).
