Any other information on results incl. tables
1.1.1.
The TGA curve of the test item is shown inFigure 1. Starting at 250°C, the weight of the sample decreased significantly. At 326°C, the sample weight had decreased by 25%.
After the experiment, a dark brown molten residue remained in the sample container (original colour: orange). The change of the colour indicated reaction and/or decomposition of the test item.
1.1.2.
The DSC curve obtained with Experiment 1 is shown inFigure 2. During cooling a glass transition was observed between-20°C and -60°C. During heating aglass transition was observed between -50°C and 0°C. The inflection point was -40.330°C. From 100°C an exothermic effect was observed. The exothermic effect was probably obtained due to reaction and/or decomposition of the test item.
After the experiment, a dark brown molten residue remained in the sample container (original colour: orange). The change of the colour indicated reaction and/or decomposition of the test item.
Experiment 2 was performed as a duplicate of Experiment 1. Figure 3shows the DSC curve obtained. Similar results as in Experiment 1 were obtained. The inflection point of the glass tranisition was -37.818°C. After the experiment, a dark brown molten residue remained in the sample container.
The difference in the inflection point between Experiment 1 and Experiment 2 was > 0.5°C. Therefore Experiment 3 was performed applying an identical temperature program. Figure 4shows the DSC-curve obtained. The inflection point of the glass transition was -38.453°C. As this value was in line with the inflection points observed in Experiment 1 and Experiment 2, results were accepted and it was decided to report the temperature range as observed in all three experiments. After the experiment, a dark brown molten residue remained in the sample container.
The inflection point of the glass transition point was reported as the range obtained from Experiment 1 (-40.330°C), Experiment 2 (-37.818°C) and Experiment 3 (-38.453°C).
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The melting temperature of Styrax resinoid oil was determined by DSC. No melting point was determined for Styrax resinoid oil. A glass transition of the test item was observed at - 40.3°C to -37.8°C (235.4K – 232.9K).
- Executive summary:
No melting point was determined for Styrax resinoid oil. A glass transition of the test item was observed at - 40.3°C to -37.8°C (235.4K – 232.9 K) following the guidelines EC A.1, OECD 102 and OPPTS 830.7200.
