Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of test item was measured using the static method as described in OECD 104 resp. EU A.4. Ten pairs temperature/vapour pressure were used to calculate a regression from which vapour pressure at ambient temperature could be estimated.
From the measured values, the vapour pressure of the test item was calculated as 856 Pa at 20.0 °C and 1125 Pa at 25 °C. The values of the heating and cooling down phase showed good correspondence.
Therefore, the result of the study is considered valid.
Executive summary:

This study was performed in order to determine the vapour pressure of test item according OECD 104, resp. EU A.4, using the static method.

From the measured values, the vapour pressure of the test item was calculated as 856 Pa at 20.0 °C and 1125 Pa at 25 °C.

Description of key information

The vapour pressure of the test substance was determined to be 856 Pa at 20 °C and 1125 Pa at 25 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Vapour pressure:
856 Pa
at the temperature of:
20 °C

Additional information

A fully reliable experimental study, conducted according to OECD 104 /EU A4 guideline, using static method, is available. It is considered as a key study, and the result is retained as key data.
