Key result
Remarks on result:
not determinable
Remarks:
Vapour pressure of test substance, Pigment Yellow 4, could not be determined under test conditions. At temperature range from 110 to 140 °C, the losses of weight recorded during measurements were too low and fluctuating. The higher temperature could not be used owing to melting of test substance followed by thermal decomposition.

Remarks on result:
not determinable

The preliminary test was performed to evaluate the suitable conditions for measurement of vapour pressure.

During the second part of study, the losses of weight at temperature range from 110 to 140 °C were measured and evaluated. No significant losses of weight were recorded. The higher temperature could not be used owing to melting of test substance followed by thermal degradation. The thermal stability of test substance stated by client in Test Substance Data Sheet is 140 °C.

Conclusions:
Vapour pressure of test substance, Pigment Yellow 4, could not be determined under test conditions. At temperature range from 110 to 140 °C, the losses of weight recorded during measurements were too low and fluctuating. The higher temperature could not be used owing to melting of test substance followed by thermal decomposition.
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the test substance, Pigment Yellow 4, was investigated. The isothermal thermogravimetry effusion method was used.

The procedures used in the study were in accordance with:

- Method A.4 Vapour Pressure, 1.5.6. Effusion method: isothermal thermogravimetry, Commission Regulation (EC) No 761/2009 Anex 1, Published in O.J. L 220, 2009

- OECD Test Guideline No.104, page 9 Effusion method: isothermal thermogravimetry, Adopted on 23 March 2006

 

Vapour pressure of test substance, Pigment Yellow 4, could not be determined under test conditions. At temperature range from 110 to 140 °C, the losses of weight recorded during measurements were too low and fluctuating.

The higher temperature could not be used owing to melting of test substance followed by thermal decomposition.

Description of key information

Vapour pressure of test substance, Pigment Yellow 4, could not be determined under test conditions. At temperature range from 110 to 140 °C, the losses of weight recorded during measurements were too low and fluctuating.

The higher temperature could not be used owing to melting of test substance followed by thermal decomposition.
