Boiling Point/ Boiling Range (DSC)

Two measurements in aluminium crucibles with a hole showed an endothermic effect after melting in the temperature range 310- 360 °C with an onset temperature of approximately 350 °C.

For the correction ~t of the boiling point to standard atmospheric pressure (1013.3 hPa) the equation, table and graphs of H.B. Hass and R.F. Newton in „CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 74th ed. 1993-1994", pages 15-16 and 15-17 were used

Conclusions:
The boiling point of the test item at atmospheric pressure (1013,3 hPa) is 351 °C.
Executive summary:

The determination of the boiling point / boiling range is carried out by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). In a defined atmosphere (nitrogen) the test item was heated up from ambient temperature to the final temperature (450 °C) at a constant heating rate (10 K/min). The quantity of heat absorbed or released was measured and recorded. Aluminium crucibles with a small hole were used as containers for the test item and as empty reference crucible. Approx. 5 -6 mg of the test item was used. The boiling point of the test item at atmospheric pressure (1013,3 hPa) is 351 °C.
