Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Using the Büchi B-545 unit the sample is filled into a small sample tube with an immersed boiling capillary. The sample is heated up with a constant heating range (initial temperature: 100 °C, heating rate: 3 °C). The boiling point is received, when continuous stream of gas is generated in the boiling capillary.


 


begin of boiling: ca. 200 °C; ca. 196 °C


boiling point: ca. 305 °C; ca. 310 °C


 


No exact boiling point could be determined. At a temperature of about 200 °C the colour of the test item changed.

Conclusions:
No exact boiling point could be determined as the change of colour of the test item at 200 °C indicates decomposition.
Executive summary:

The boiling point of the test item was determined in an experimental study according to EC-Guideline 92/69/EWG A.2 and OECD TG 103 using visual inspection. No exact boiling point could be determined. At a temperature of about 200 °C the colour of the test item changed.

Description of key information

No exact boiling point could be determined as the change of colour of the test item at 200 °C indicates decomposition.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Temperature of decomposition (state purity):
200 °C
