Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: The study was carried out in a laboratory accredited under GLP, however the study itself was not subject to GLP audit. The study was designed to be compatible with OECD TG 103 (1995) and Method A2 in Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 without deviations.
Qualifier:

Conclusions:
In a valid, reliable and conclusive study the boiling temperature of the test item was determined to be 364 °C (637 K) at 100.4 kPa.
Executive summary:

To determine the boiling temperature of the test item a study was performed according to OECD TG 103 (1995) and Method A2 in Regulation (EC) No 440/2008. The boiling temperature of the test item was determined to be 364 °C (637 K) at 100.4 kPa. A minor discoloration/residue remained for all determinations performed under both an air atmosphere and a nitrogen atmosphere. This indicated possible thermal, as opposed to oxidative, decomposition during boiling.
