The vapour pressure was measured in the temperature range of 32 °C to 126 °C. No signal was observed up to a of temperature of 66 °C, meaning that the vapour pressure in this range was below the lower detection limit of 10-5 hPa. The vapour pressure was measured at the following temperatures: 32.1, 41.1, 45.5, 45.9, 51.5, 57.3, 65.7 and 66.0. For every temperature the vapour pressure of the test item was <10-5  hPa. Above 72 °C a vapour pressure could be measured.

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of the test item was found to be 1.1 x 10-8 hPa at 25 °C.
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the test item was determined using the Effusion method: Vapour pressure balance according to OECD Test Guideline 104 and EU method, A.4. The vapour pressure was determined in the temperature range of 32 °C to 126 °C. The logarithm of the vapour pressure was plotted as a function of the inverse temperature 1/T. The vapour pressure at 20, 25 and 50 °C was determined by linear regression of the measured values. The vapour pressure of the test item was found to be 4.4 × 10-9, 1.1 x 10-8  and 7.3 × 10-7 hPa at 20, 25 and 50 °C.

Description of key information
