- Executive summary:
The vapour pressure of the test substance was determined by the automatised gas saturation method in accordance with the OECD TG 104 and EU Method A.4 and was in compliance with GLP. The vapour pressure of the test substance at 25 °C by determined by extrapolation was 8.67E-07 Pa, corresponding with 6.503E-09 mm Hg (extrapolated) (1 Pa = 7.500617E-03 mm Hg).

VAPOUR PRESSURE RESULTS
A) Liquid phase : Main experiment (9.8769 mL/min)
Vapour pressure curve
10Log P (Pa) = 16.1937 - 6505.41 x 1/T(K)
from fit of measurements between 75.5 °C and 155.6 °C
Vapour Pressure at 25 °C: 2.37E-06 Pa (extrapolated)

B. Liquid phase: Saturation control (0.1802 mL/min)
Vapour pressure curve
10Log P (Pa) =12.9303 – 5416.94 x 1/T (K)
from fit of measurements between 120.7 °C and 150.5 °C
Vapour Pressure at 25 °C: 5.78E-06 Pa (extrapolated)
Amorphous state as compound not a liquid at room temperature.
C) Enthalpy of fusion
From difference of enthalpies of evaporation = δhf = δhs – δhv
δhf = XX.X ± X kJ/mol
From DSC measurement: δh= 28.80 kJ/mol
Note:
enthalpy of sublim. resp. evap. δh (kJ/mol) = 0.019144 x B
entropy of sublim. resp. evap. δs (J/mol) = 19.144 x A
Fill in, if the Vapour Pressure Curve reported in the summary was obtained by
calculation over a phase change:
10Log P(Pa) = A + B x 1/T(K)
A_sol= A_liq + [δ hf (kJ/mol) /00.019144 ] / (273.15 + MP °C)
A_sol = 16.1937 + [28.80 / 0.019144 ] / (273.15 + 53.2 °C)
A_sol = 20.8030
B_sol= B_liq - [δ hf (kJ/mol) /00.019144 ]
B_sol = -6505.41 - 28.80 / 0.01944
B_sol = -8009.80
D) Measured vapour pressures
All of the selected good vapour pressure measurement points and temperatures are indicated in the included vapour pressure report. This report contains also the calibration equation and plot used for the evaluation of the raw data. Included are furthermore the vapour pressure plot and calculated (inter-and extrapolated) vapour pressures for a number of fixed temperatures.
PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED DURING THE PRESENT MEASUREMENTS
Problems encountered: Low vapour pressure, solid phase not directly accessible. The difference between high and low saturation flow curves is due to a very nonlinear calibration curve, but has no adverse effects on the quality of the main results.
