Specific details on test material used for the study:
Test item without emulsifier was investigated.

Amidoamine (UVCB)
Pulcra ID: DE07_2014_012_BEL66 (amidoamine without emulsifier)
Physical state: pale yellowish solid at 20 °C
Batch No.: K8 4309 L481
Expiry date of batch: 09 March 2018
Purity: 100 % (UVCB)
Stability: stable under test conditions
Storage condition of test material: Room temperature, protected from light
Key result
Atm. press.:
>= 99.3 - <= 99.8 kPa
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
ca. 161 °C

As a result of the low rate of enthalpy change during decomposition, the onset temperature could only be approximated. Similar thermographic profiles were obtained using air and nitrogen atmospheres. This indicates that the decomposition in both air and nitrogen atmospheres is most likely due to a thermal mechanism.

Conclusions:
The test item has been determined to decompose from approximately 161 °C (434 K) at 99.3 to 99.8 kPa. As the test item decomposed, no value for boiling temperature could be determined.
Executive summary:

In the Klimisch 1 GLP study the boiling point of amidoamine test item was determined with the DSC method according to OECD 103 and EU method A.2. The test item shows a boiling and /or decomposition at ca. 161 °C (at 99.3 to 99.8 kPa) according to the definition in the OECD Guideline 103.

This study is considered relevant for the risk assessment.
