Additional information
The boiling point of the test substance was estimated using the constituents approach.
This final extract is a natural complex substance. It is a mixture of several components, and two of them represent about 89% of the UVCB.
The value of the boiling point of this extract is estimated between 230°C and 286°C.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
