Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Executive summary:

The boiling point of the test substance was determined under GLP according to EU A.2 guideline, using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC).

Three runs were performed and found consistent, so the mean final temperature was retained.

The boiling temperature of test substance has been determined to be 251.7 ± 0.4 °C.

Description of key information

Measured boiling point = 251.7°C (atmP unspecified but expected ambient)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Boiling point at 101 325 Pa:
251.7 °C

Additional information

A reliable experimental study, conducted according to a recognized EC method and under GLP, is available. Despite restrictions due to missing experimental details, it is considered as a key study, and the result is retained as key data.
