Boiling point

Link to relevant study record(s)

Reference

Endpoint:

boiling point

Type of information:

experimental study

Adequacy of study:

key study

Study period:

2018

Reliability:

1 (reliable without restriction)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

comparable to guideline study

Qualifier:

equivalent or similar to guideline

Guideline:

OECD Guideline 103 (Boiling Point)

Principles of method if other than guideline:

The test is conducted in accordance with the procedure described in EU Regulation (EC) 440/2008, Annex Part A test A.2 and OECD Test Guideline 103.

The test is conducted to determine the temperature or temperature range of the phase transition from a liquid to a vapour. The test also determines if the sample undergoes exothermic decomposition.

GLP compliance:

no

Type of method:

differential scanning calorimetry

Key result

Boiling pt.:

>= 362 - <= 365 °C

Atm. press.:

ca. 101 kPa

Decomposition:

yes

Decomp. temp.:

ca. 362 °C

Conclusions:

According to the DSC method, the boiling point of SMLT was determined to be within the range 362 - 365°C. Mean average boiling point is 363.5°C. However, given the temperature, the nature of the substance and the split peak observed in the DSC trace, it`s highly likely that there is little boiling and this is, in fact, the onset of decomposition.

Executive summary:

According to the DSC method, the boiling point of SMLT was determined to be within the range 362 - 365°C. Mean average boiling point is 363.5°C. However, given the temperature, the nature of the substance and the split peak observed in the DSC trace, it`s highly likely that there is little boiling and this is, in fact, the onset of decomposition.
