2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
study well documented, meets generally accepted scientific principles, acceptable for assessment
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: differential thermoanalysis method.
Principles of method if other than guideline:
A differential thermoanalysis method (DTA) was used to determine the melting temperature and the temperature of decomposition of DBTO.
GLP compliance:
yes
Type of method:
thermal analysis
Melting / freezing pt.:
105 °C
Decomp. temp.:
