The values for 20, 25, and 50°C are calculated, using the Antoine constants A, B and C.

The calculated vapour pressure values are:

p(20°C) = 8.8 x 10E-5 Pa
p(25
°C} = 1.9 x 10E-4 Pa
p(50
°C) = 6.9 x 10E-3 Pa

 

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of the test item at 25°C was determined to be 0.000195 Pa.
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 was measured in the temperature range of 21 to 98 °C. The values for 20, 25, and 50 °C are calculated, using the Antoine constants A, B and C. The vapour pressure of the test item at 20, 25 and 50°C were determined to be 8.8E-5 Pa, 1.9E-4 Pa and 6.9E-3 Pa respectively.

Description of key information
