No boiling point, reaction/decomposition.

Preliminary test

The TGA curve of the test item is shown inFigure 1. Starting at 350°C, the weight of the sample decreased significantly. At 410°C, the sample weight had decreased by 25%.

After the experiment, a yellow molten residue remained in the sample container (original colour: colourless) and a yellow residue was observed on the lid of the sample container. The change of the colour indicated reaction and/or decomposition of the test item.

Main study

The DSC curve obtained with Experiment 1 is shown inFigure 2. During cooling a glass transition was observed between -60°C and -80°C. During heating aglass transition was observed between -90°C and -50°C followed by an endothermic effect starting at 250°C. The inflection point temperature of the glass transition was -75.782°C. The endothermic effect was probably obtained due to reaction and/or decomposition of the test item.

After the experiment, a light yellow molten residue remained in the sample container (original colour: colourless). 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 3 shows the DSC curve obtained. Similar results as in Experiment 1 were obtained. The inflection point of the glass transition was -76.001°C. After the experiment, a colourless residue remained in the sample container. 

The glass transition was determined as the mean inflection point of Experiment 1 (-75.782°C) and Experiment 2 (-76.001°C).

Conclusions:
No boiling point, reaction/decomposition.
The melting and boiling temperature of Dermol GTR were determined by DSC.
No melting point was determined. A glass transition of the test item was observed at -75.9°C (197.3K).
Reaction and/or decomposition of the test item was observed during DSC experiment at temperatures of > 250°C (> 523K). Boiling of the test item was not observed below the temperature at which reaction and/or decomposition started. Based on this, the test item has no boiling temperature.
Executive summary:

In this guideline (OECD 103) study, conducted with GLP certification, EC 202-935-1n was determined as having no boiling point due to decomposition during the DSC experiment.
