Reference
Endpoint:
boiling point
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
October - December 2017
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 103 (Boiling point/boiling range)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Type of method:
other: capillary tube method
Specific details on test material used for the study:
- Name: 28723 - Ca-Gluconate
- Aggregate state at room temperature: solid
- Colour: white
- Expiry Date: March 27, 2018
- Storage conditions at test facility: at 20 °C ± 5 °C, in the dark
Key result
Boiling pt.:
> 400 °C
Atm. press.:
99.12 kPa
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
ca. 200 °C

The determination of the boiling point was performed by visual judgement using the capillary method. In the preliminary tests up to 200 °C the test item changed the colour to brown. A clear normal boiling point, as defined in the guideline with a current stream of bubbles evolving from the capillary, was not observed.

Conclusions:
No boiling point according to the criteria described in the guideline could be observed up to 400 °C at 99.12 kPa.
Executive summary:

A study in accordance to OECD Guideline 103 (Boiling point) revealed no boiling point up to 400 °C. The determination of the boiling point was performed by visual judgement using the capillary method. In the preliminary tests up to 200 °C the test item changed the colour to brown. A clear normal boiling point, as defined in the guideline with a current stream of bubbles evolving from the capillary, was not observed. In conclusion, no boiling point could be observed up to 400 °C. The atmospheric pressure was 99.12 kPa.
