The results of the isothermal TGA analysis for the test item and the vapour pressure at 20°C and 25°C are given in Table 1 and Table 2 below.

The equation of the vapour pressure regression curve was: log PT = -2653 ´ 1/T + 9.44 (r = 0.991, n = 8).

Conclusions:
The vapour pressure was determined to be 2.4 Pa and 20°C and 3.5 Pa at 25°C.
Executive summary:

The isothermal thermogravimetric effusion method was applied for the determination of the vapour pressure of the test item. 

The vapour pressure was determined to be 2.4 Pa at 20°C and 3.5 Pa at 25°C.
