- The sample was a solid which had to be ground to enable it to be charged to the test cell.

- The test cell was installed into the vessel before applying vacuum to remove the air. The sample was heated at a rate of 5 K.min^-1 with stirring and pressure readings taken at 25 °C hold intervals to 200 °C.

- The values below 75 °C have not been quoted, as representative temperature measurements could not be guaranteed due to the sample being solid. A melting point for the sample was not known but a softening point of 110 °C was given.

- Corrections have been made for any residual pad gas remaining in the sample container at the start of the experiment.

Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this study the vapour pressure of the test material was 17 hPa at 75 °C.
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the test material was investigated using the static method according to EU Method A4.

The sample was a solid which had to be ground to enable it to be charged to the test cell. The test cell was installed into the vessel before applying vacuum to remove the air. The sample was heated at a rate of 5 K.min^-1 with stirring and pressure readings taken at 25 °C hold intervals to 200 °C.

The values below 75 °C have not been quoted, as representative temperature measurements could not be guaranteed due to the sample being solid. A melting point for the sample was not known but a softening point of 110 °C was given. Corrections have been made for any residual pad gas remaining in the sample container at the start of the experiment.

Under the conditions of this study the vapour pressure of the test material was reported as follows:

At 75 °C: 17 hPa

At 100 °C: 52 hPa

At 133 °C: 173 hPa

At 150 °C: 236 hPa

At 175 °C: 287 hPa

At 200 °C: 298 hPa

Description of key information

Additional information

The vapour pressure of the test material was investigated using the static method according to EU Method A4. The study was awarded a reliability score of 2 in accordance with the criteria set forth by Klimisch et al. (1997).

The sample was a solid which had to be ground to enable it to be charged to the test cell. The test cell was installed into the vessel before applying vacuum to remove the air. The sample was heated at a rate of 5 K.min^-1 with stirring and pressure readings taken at 25 °C hold intervals to 200 °C.

The values below 75 °C have not been quoted, as representative temperature measurements could not be guaranteed due to the sample being solid.
