- Executive summary:
A study was conducted to determine the vapour pressure of DDAC according to the isothermal thermo gravimetric effusion method (OECD Guideline 104, EU method A.4 and US EPA OPPTS 830.7950). Approximately 11.1 or 15.8 mg of the test substance was applied to the surface of a roughened glass plate as a homogeneous layer. The plates were dried at 30°C under nitrogen in the thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA). The weight loss of the test substance was measured continuously as a function of time. Benzo(ghi)perylene, chrysene, hexachlorobenzene, naphthalene and water were used as reference substances for validation. The log Vt, 20 value which was obtained by extrapolation of the evaporation rate curve, fitted in the vapour pressure regression curve. Under the conditions of the study, the vapour pressure of test substance was found to be <1.5 × 10(-3) Pa = <1.1 × 10(-5) mm Hg at 20°C and <5.8 × 10(-3) Pa = <4.3 × 10(-5) mm Hg at 25°C.

Dm = weight loss of the test substance [g]
F = surface of the sample plate [cm2]

c = constant specific for the experimental arrangement
d = constant specific for the experimental arrangement

T = temperature [K]
a = slope [K]
b = intercept
Results:
The isothermal TGA effusion method was applied for the determination of the vapour pressure of Didecyldimethylammonium chloride (DDAC). The vapour pressure of the test substance at 20°C (293K) and 25°C (298K) was:

Description of key information
The vapour pressure of the test substance was measured according to the isothermal thermo gravimetric effusion method of OECD Guideline 104, EU Method A.4 and US EPA OPPTS 830.7950 (Brekelmans, 2012).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Vapour pressure:
- 0.006 Pa
- at the temperature of:
- 25 °C
Additional information
- The vapour pressure was found to be <1.5 × 10-3 Pa (i.e. <1.1 × 10-5 mm Hg) at 20°C and <5.8 × 10-3 Pa (i.e. <4.3 × 10-5 mm Hg) at 25°C.
- Data presented in the DDAC assessment report for Product Type 8 conducted under Directive 98/8/EC (evaluating Competent Authority: Italy, June 2015, attached in Section 13 of the IUCLID dataset) reported an additional vapour pressure study with VP values of 5.9E-06, 1.1E-05 and 2.3E-04 at 20, 25 and 50ºC respectively (US ISC).
As a conservative approach, the relatively higher vapour pressure value <5.8 × 10-3 Pa at 25°C of the purified form of the registered substance has been considered further for hazard/risk assessment.
