Reference
Endpoint:
boiling point
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
December 10, 2002 - February 7, 2003
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Study conducted according to EU Method A.2 and GLP. However, more effort could have been taken to investigate partial decomposition during melting in more detail. Two determinations were performed, but using the same parameters.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.2 (Boiling Temperature)
Version / remarks:
(1992)
Deviations:
no
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: ASTM E537-86
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Type of method:
differential scanning calorimetry
Remarks:
(DSC)
Atm. press.:
>= 102.01 - <= 102.23 kPa
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
>= 337 °C
Remarks on result:
other: Reaction and/or decomposition of the test substance was observed starting at a temperature of 337°C (610 K)

Several endothermic effects were observed:

- At approximately 140°C (minor effect; not further explained)

- At approximately 220°C melting of the substance was observed

- At approximately 260°C (very small)

Result experiment #1: decomposition starting at 337.0°C; residue after the experiment: dark brown stain

Result experiment #2: decomposition starting at 337.5°C; residue after the experiment: dark brown stain

Conclusions:
The boiling temperature of the substance was determined using DSC, according to EU Method A.2 and GLP. Reaction and/or decomposition of the test substance was observed starting at a temperature of 337°C (610K) and an atmospheric pressure of 102.01 - 102.23 kPa.

Description of key information

Reaction and/or decomposition of the substance was observed starting at a temperature of 337°C (610K) and an atmospheric pressure of 102.01 - 102.23 kPa..

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The boiling temperature of the substance was determined using DSC in accordance with EU Method A.2 and GLP.
