(a)could not be calculated due to weight increase

The log PT versus 1/T curve for the substance over the range 200 - 230°C showed poor linearity (correlation coefficient r < 0.99). Extrapolation of the curve to 20°C or 25°C would not give reliable results for the vapour pressure of the substance at these temperatures.Since the weight loss of the test item at 200°C, 210°C, 220°C and 230°C was lower than the weight loss of reference substance benzo(ghi)perylene at the same temperatures, it was considered that vapour pressure of the substance at 20°C (25°C) is lower than the vapour pressure of benzo(ghi)perylene at 20°C (25°C).

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure of the substance at 20°C and 25°C was determined to be < 1.3E-8 Pa and < 5.5E-8 Pa, respectively
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the substance was determined using the isothermal thermogravimetric effusion method in a GLP study based on EC A.4, OECD 104 and OPPTS 830.7950. Validation of the method was performed using a set of five reference substances. The log PT versus 1/T curve for the substance over the range 200 - 230°C showed poor linearity (correlation coefficient r < 0.99). Extrapolation of the curve to 20°C or 25°C would not give reliable results for the vapour pressure of the substance at these temperatures.

From the measured weight losses in the temperature range 200 - 230°C, the vapour pressure of the substance was determined to be lower than the vapour pressure of reference substance benzo(ghi)perylene. The vapour pressure of the substance at 20°C and 25°C was concluded to be < 1.3E-8 Pa and < 5.5E-8 Pa, resp.
