Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
accepted calculation method
Justification for type of information:
Internationally accepted calculation method, EPI-Suite EPA (USA): MPBPVP (v1.43)
Qualifier:
no guideline available
Principles of method if other than guideline:
MPBPWIN estimates vapor pressure (VP) by three separate methods: (1) the Antoine method, (2) the modified Grain method, and (3) the Mackay method.  All three use the normal boiling point to estimate VP.  Unless the user enters a boiling point on the data entry screen,  MPBPWIN uses the estimated boiling point from the adapted Stein and Brown method.
