TGA EXPERIMENT (PRELIMINARY TEST)

Starting at 275°C, the weight of the sample decreased significantly. At 291°C, the sample weight had decreased by 25%.

After the experiment, a dark brown molten residue remained in the sample container.

The change of the colour indicated reaction and/or decomposition of the test item.

DSC EXPERIMENT 1

A strong endothermic effect was observed between 150°C and 200°C followed by a weak endothermic effect, i.e. gradual decrease of heat flow starting at 225°C. The extrapolated onset temperature of the endothermic peak was 184.619°C. The strong endothermic effect was most likely caused by melting of the test item. The weak endothermic effect was ascribed to reaction and/or decomposition of the test item.

After the experiment, an orange molten residue remained in the sample container. Based on this visual observation, it was concluded that the test item had molten and the change of the colour demonstrated reaction and/or decomposition of the test item.

DSC EXPERIMENT 2

In order to investigate the melting peak, in Experiment 2 heating was stopped directly after the melting peak. The extrapolated onset temperature was 184.126°C. After the experiment, a colourless molten residue remained in the sample container. It demonstrated that melting was the reason for the endothermic effect.

DATA HANDLING

The melting temperature was determined as the mean extrapolated onset temperature of Experiment 1 and Experiment 2.

Conclusions:

The melting temperature of the substance was determined to be 184.4°C.

Executive summary:

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) experiments were performed in a GLP study according to EC A.1, OECD 102 and OPPTS 830.7200.

The melting temperature of the substance was determined in duplicate obtaining a mean value of 184.4°C.

Reaction and/or decomposition of the substance started at 225°C.
