The vapour pressur of Tall oil pith, reaction product with triethylene glycol was calculated by extrapolation of the measured vapour pressure curve for the temperatures 20, 25 and 50 °C with the estimated average molecular weight of 1515 g/mol. The estimated molecular weight is assumed to be adequate as it is close to the main component of the test item.
