- The experimentally determined vapour pressure of the test substance at 20°C was not in the recommended range of 1 to 1000 mbar for DSC-measurements. Therefore, an estimation procedure in accordance with the test method OECD Guideline 104 was used. This method is applied for vapour pressures between 103 and 10-7mbar.

- The vapour pressure P for solids can be calculated using the an adapted equation for liquids.

 

Conclusions:
Under the study conditions, the vapour pressure of the test substance was determined to be ≤9.6 Pa at 20°C and ≤150 Pa at 50°C.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the vapour pressure of the test substance according to OECD Guideline 104 (Grain-Watson estimation) similar to the EU method A.4 (dynamic method). The practical test performance was based on the in-house test procedure VTA(S) 31X07001.01: ‘determination of the vapour pressure curve of solid and liquid substances by means of DSC’. Under the study conditions, the vapour pressure of the test substance was determined to be ≤9.6 Pa at 20°C and ≤150 Pa at 50°C (Kintrup, 2015).
