The average (n = 3) reported boiling point (BP) of TMP is 221±1°C at 1.013E+05 Pa (760 mm Hg). The reported BP data were considered to have a Klimisch code of 4, indicating that reliability is unassignable because the data were taken from reference sources which are “secondary literature” (Klimisch et al., 1987).
