Remarks:
The measurement with the capillary method and the visual inspections showed no boiling after the melting effect and before the decomposition started.

Melting point / melting range: DSC measurement

Two DSC measurements with a heating rate of 10 K/min showed a multistage endothermal effect in the temperature range of 200 – 290 °C. The results of the DSC measurements are summarized in Table 1.

An additional measurement with the capillary method was performed in order to clarify the melting range.

Melting point / melting range: capillary tube in a metal block

A measurement with the capillary method was performed to clarify the results of the DSC measurements. The filling height of the test item was approximately 5 mm.

The results are summarized in Table 2.

Approx. 221 °C: No further change

Under consideration of the results from the DSC measurements and the capillary method it was concluded that the test item started to melt at approx. 200 °C. Directly afterwards decomposition started.

Boiling point / boiling range: DSC measurement

The measurement with the capillary method and the visual inspections showed no boiling after the melting effect and before the decomposition started.

The test item had no boiling point under atmospheric conditions.

Executive summary:

The test item had no boiling point under atmospheric conditions.

Description of key information

The test item had no boiling point under atmospheric conditions.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The measurement with the capillary method and the visual inspections showed no boiling after the melting effect and before the decomposition started.

The test item had no boiling point under atmospheric conditions.
