- Key result
- Boiling pt.:
- >= 390 °C
- Decomposition:
- yes
- Decomp. temp.:
- >= 390 °C
- Conclusions:
- No boiling point was detected for C1618FA-TEPA-compound prior to decomposition.
- Executive summary:
The boiling point of C16 18FA-TEPA-compound was determined according to EU method A.2, December 1992 and OECD guideline 103, 27 July 1995 (differential scanning calorimetry). No boiling point was detected prior to decomposition.
Reference
Using thermal analysis, no endothermic peaks were detected in the temperature range between 25 °C and 400 °C from which boiling could be deduced.
A second DSC run was performed in the same temperature range (25 °C to 400 °C) but with the temperature rise adjusted to 10 K/min. At about 390 °C an exothermic heat effect was observed, After the experiment the test item was dark brown and molten and had lost about 41 % of its mass.
In conclusion, decomposition was observed before boiling occurred.
Description of key information
No boiling point was detected prior to decomposition (EU method A.2/OECD guideline 103; differential scanning calorimetry).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Temperature of decomposition (state purity):
- 390 °C
