The Vapour Pressure of Anthracene in the Solid State

Abstract

The vapour pressure of solid anthracene was measured by a static method between 157.3 and 206.9°C, and by a transpiration method in the vicinity of 182-184°C. Good agreement was obtained between the two methods. The vapour pressure was given by the equation: log₁₀p mm = -4905/T + 11.60.
