The test item showed a second endothermic signal in the temperature range of approx. 100 – 230 °C that can be assigned to the boiling of the test item.

For the correction of the boiling temperature to standard pressure the test item was assigned to chemical group 5 (e.g. Benzyl alcohol). According to appendix 8.2 a correction value φ = 5.7 was used for the temperature of 215 °C.

The lowest measured onset temperature was corrected to the standard pressure to be 214.01 °C and the highest onset temperature to be 214.89 °C. As the corrected onset temperatures in both tests deviate less than 0.5 K from their mean value of 214.45 °C, the test item has a boiling point of 214.5 °C.

Conclusions:
The boiling point was determined to be 214.5°C by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC).

Executive summary:

The boiling point study was conducted in accordance with OECD Guideline 103 and EU method A2 and is considered reliable without restrictions. (Klimisch 1). Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) apparatus was used to determine the boiling point of the test item. The boiling point was determined to be 214.5°C at 1013.0 hPa.
