Preliminary test

At 96°C the sample weight had decreased by 25%. After the experiment it was observed that the test substance was evaporated from the sample container.

Main study

The results of the isothermal TGA analysis for the test substance and the vapour pressure at 20°C and 25°C are given in table 1 and 2. The plot of the log PT of the test substance as function of the reciprocal temperatures can be described by the following equation: logPT,20 = -4024 * 1/T + 15.40 (r = 0.9998, n = 6)

Conclusions:
A vapour pressure value of 47 Pa at 20°C was determined in a reliable study.

Description of key information

Vapour pressure: 47 Pa at 20°C; 80 Pa at 25°C

Key value for chemical safety assessment

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

Additional information

A vapour pressure value of 47 Pa at 20°C was determined in a reliable study conducted according to appropriate test protocol; this is the most reliable result and assigned as key study. A vapour pressure value of 125 Pa at 25°C was measured using the Siwoloff method. A vapour pressure of 67 Pa is reported in secondary literature (MSDS), of which the reliability is not assignable.
