The test
item showed a first small endothermic effect in the temperature range of 160 – 170 °C
and a second larger endothermic effect in the temperature range of
180 – 240 °C. An exothermic effect was detected in the temperature range
of 290 – 350 °C. No further thermal effects were observed up to the test
end temperature of 500 °C.
During the verification measurements with the capillary method it was
observed that the test item started to melt at approx. 180 °C. During
the melting process the formation of gas bubbles (foaming) was observed.
At 200 °C the test item was completely molten and had turned into a
clear yellow liquid.
The test item did not show a separate distinct endothermic signal which could be assigned to the boiling of the test item above the melting temperature of the test item. Nevertheless, gas formation directly following the melting process was observed by capillary method. However, the cause for the formation of gas can be based on a decomposition process of the test item instead of boiling. If the test item had been boiling the weight loss at the end of the DSC measurement would have been approx. 100 % instead of only approx. 85 %. This means that decomposition product probably remained as residue in the crucible. Furthermore, the liquid in the capillary had turned yellow at 200 °C. This indicates a chemical reaction at these temperatures.
The melting process is directly followed by a decomposition process accompanied by gas evolution. As the test item starts to decompose before reaching its boiling point, the boiling temperature can not be specified.
Description of key information
The boiling point of the test item can not be defined as it starts to decompose during the melting process. The results were obtained by DSC and optically confirmed by capillary method according to EU Method A.2. and OECD Test Guideline 103 in a GLP study.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Temperature of decomposition (state purity):
- 200 °C
Additional information
Temperature of decomposition around 200°C.
HPLC purity 100 %
