Specific details on test material used for the study:
Identity: FAT 40824/A
Batch: Red ROE 805 BOP 04/05
Appearance: dark red powder
Purity: Organic part (Na-salt): approx. 82 %; Main component 1: approx. 36.2 %; Main component 2: approx. 27.5 %; Oligomers: 10 %
Expiration date: 01 October 2010
Storage: At room temperature at about 20 °C in a desiccator (hygroscopic)
Temp.:
25 °C
Vapour pressure:
0 Pa
Remarks on result:
other: The vapour pressure was calculated to be 1.8E-29 Pa at 25 degree C.

The boiling point of FAT 40824/A was calculated to be approximately 842°C using Meissner's method.

Conclusions:
The calculated vapour pressure of FAT 40824/A based on the boiling point calculated and using the Modified Watson Correlation is 1.8 E-29 Pa at 25 °C.
Executive summary:

The estimation of the vapour pressure of FAT 40824/A was based on the EEC directive 92/69, Part A, Methods for the determination of physico-chemical properties, A.4 Vapour Pressure", EEC Publication No. L383, December 1992 and the OECD Guideline No. 104, "Vapour Pressure" adopted July 27, 1995. The boiling point of FAT 40824/A was calculated to be approximately 842 °C using Meissner's method. The vapour pressure of FAT 40824/A was estimated to be 1.8x 10 -29 Pa at 25 °C based on the boiling point calculated and using the Modified Watson Correlation.

Description of key information

Although a vapour pressure determination is not required for a substance that does not melt at 300 °C or below, the vapour pressure was estimated by calculation based on Meissner's method, resulting in 1.8 E-29 Pa at 25 °C. For exposure assessment purposes the value 0.000000001 Pa is used (lowest value possible in field).

Key value for chemical safety assessment
