Key result
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
> 200 °C
Remarks on result:
not determinable
Conclusions:
The termal decomposition of the test substance started at the temperature 200°C. Any peaks correspond to the boiling of the test substance were not observed to the temperature at which the thermal decomposition started.
Boiling temperature of the test substance, Dibenzylsulfoxide, could not be determined because of thermal decomposition of the test substance.
Executive summary:

The melting and boiling temperature of the test substance, Dibenzylsulfoxide, was investigated. The Differential Scanning Calorimetry method was used.

The procedures used in the study were in accordance with:

-             Method A.1. Melting/Freezing temperature, Council Regulation (EC) No.440/2008, Published in O.J. L 142, 2008

-             OECD Test Guideline No.102, Melting Point/Melting Range, Adopted July 27, 1995

-             Method A.2 – Boiling Temperature (1.6.6.2 Differential scanning calorimetry), Council Regulation (EC) No.440/2008, Published in O.J. L 142, 2008

-             OECD Test Guideline No 103, Boiling Point, Adopted July 27, 1995

Melting temperature of the test substance, Dibenzylsulfoxide, is 132.8°C, i.e. 406.0K. Extended uncertainty of determination is ±0.3K.

The termal decomposition of the test substance started at the temperature 200°C. Any peaks correspond to the boiling of the test substance were not observed to the temperature at which the thermal decomposition started.

Boiling temperature of the test substance, Dibenzylsulfoxide, could not be determined because of thermal decomposition of the test substance.
