Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Endpoint:
boiling point
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, Section 1 "Physical-Chemical Properties No: 113" Screening Test for Thermal Stability and Stability in Air
Deviations:
no
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
other: EU Method A.1 (Melting / Freezing Temperature)
Deviations:
not applicable
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
other: OECD Guideline 102 (Melting point / Melting Range)
Deviations:
not applicable
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Type of method:
other: thermal analysis (Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA)/Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC))
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
300 - 360 °C
Remarks on result:
other: Up to the decomposition no boiling point observed.

A slight exothermic effect between approx. 170 °C and approx. 260 °C was observed. Between approx. 300 °C and 360 °C a significant endothermic effect was observed. A definite decomposition point could not be obtained. After the heating process a solid, silvery residue remains in the crucible which indicates decomposition of the test item.

Conclusions:
Up to the decomposition of the test item no boiling point could be observed.
Executive summary:

A differential thermoanalysis method (DTA/DSC) was used to determine the boiling point which conforms to the procedure Test method A.2, "Determination of the boiling point", described in the EC-Guideline. A slight exothermic effect between approx. 170 °C and approx. 260 °C was observed. Between approx. 300 °C and 360 °C a significant endothermic effect was observed. A definite decomposition point could not be obtained. Up to the decomposition of the test item no boiling point could be observed.

Description of key information

Up to the decomposition no boiling point

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

A definite decomposition point could not be obtained. After the heating process a solid, silvery residue remains in the crucible which indicates decomposition of the substance.
