Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of diammonium persulfate at 25 °C was estimated to be 1.47E-23 mm Hg corresponding to 1.96E-21 Pa using the Modified Grain Method.
Executive summary:

As the available experimental methods allow a determination of vapour pressure down to 1E-5 Pa only, no meaningful experimental determination of the vapour pressure for diammonium persulfate was possible.

Therefore, in accordance with the respective EC method A.4 (440/2008/EC) no experimental determination of the vapour pressure was required.

Description of key information

The vapour pressure of diammonium persulfate at 25 °C was estimated at 1.47E-23 mm Hg corresponding to 1.96E-21 Pa using the Modified Grain Method of US EPA v4.0. For the risk assessment a vapour pressure of 1.0E-6 Pa at 25 °C will be used.

Vapour pressure:
0 Pa

25 °C

Additional information

As the available experimental methods allow a determination of vapour pressure down to 1E-5 Pa only, no meaningful experimental determination of the vapour pressure for diammonium persulfate was possible.

Therefore, in accordance with the respective EC method A.4 (440/2008/EC) no experimental determination of the vapour pressure was carried out. Notably, inorganic chemicals are outside of the EPIWIN (v4.0) domain. Nevertheless, the vapour pressure of diammonium persulfate is very low.
