Results

All the raw data (calibration, pre-test and main tests) is in the experimental report.

Pre-study

The measurement was stopped at 440°C.

Temperatures corresponding to the detected peaks were used to create the following temperature program:

Test 1:

An exothermic peak was observed at 272.9 °C corresponds to the degradation of the substance and mass loss was observed on the TG curve.

An endothermic peak was observed at 371.9 °C and a mass loss is observed on the TG curve, showing that almost all the substance was evaporated (including potential degradation compounds) at the end of the study.

The crucible was visually checked after the determination: by opening the crucible, no test item left in the crucible. 

Atmospheric pressure: 949.0 hPa.

A peak corresponding to a glass transition was observed during this determination.

Test 2:

An exothermic peak was observed at 273.4 °C corresponds to the degradation of the substance and mass loss was observed on the TG curve.

An endothermic peak was observed at 372.0 °C and a mass loss is observed on the TG curve, showing that all the substance was evaporated (including potential degradation compounds) at the end of the study.

The crucible was visually checked after the determination: by opening the crucible, no test item left in the crucible. 

Atmospheric pressure: 949.0 hPa.

A peak corresponding to a glass transition was observed during this determination.

Conclusion

An exothermic peak was observed at 273.2°C (mean of 272.9 °C for the first determination and 273.4 °C for the second determination) corresponds to the degradation of the substance and a mass loss was observed on the TG curve.

An endothermic peak has been determined to be 372 °C (mean of 371.9 for the first determination and 372.0 °C for the second determination) and a mass loss was observed on the TG curve, showing that almost all the substance was evaporated (including potential degradation compounds) at the end of the study.

Conclusions:
The decomposition of the substance is determined at 273.2°C. No boiling point can be determined.
Executive summary:

The study was performed in order to determine the boiling point of test item according to OECD 103, resp. EU A.2, using the DSC method.

An exothermic peak was observed at 273.2°C (mean of 272.9 °C for the first determination and 273.4 °C for the second determination) corresponds to the degradation of the substance and a mass loss was observed on the TG curve.

An endothermic peak has been determined to be 372 °C (mean of 371.9 for the first determination and 372.0 °C for the second determination) and a mass loss was observed on the TG curve, showing that almost all the substance was evaporated (including potential degradation compounds) at the end of the study.

Description of key information

The decomposition of the substance is determined at 273.2°C. No boiling point can be determined.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

A fully reliable experimental study, conducted according to OECD 102/ EU A1 guideline is available.

It is considered as a key study.
