Key result

Boiling pt.:

ca. 278 °C

Atm. press.:

ca. 101 325 Pa

Boiling/Decomposition Temperature: Boiling observed at 278 degrees C by DSC.

Conclusions:

The thermal behaviour of 2,4,7,9-tetramethyldecane-4,7-diol was assessed by Differential Scanning Calorimetry. Melting occurs, probably as a glass transition, with an onset at nominally -37°C, and boiling occurs at nominally 278°C.

Executive summary:

The thermal behaviour of 2,4,7,9-tetramethyldecane-4,7-diol was assessed by Differential Scanning Calorimetry. Melting occurs, probably as a glass transition, with an onset at nominally -37°C, and boiling occurs at nominally 278°C.
