- Executive summary:
A boiling point of ammonium 2 -ethylhexyl was determined according to OECD guideline 103, EU method A.2 and OPPTS 830.7220 using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and the cappilary method. The test item has no boiling point up to its decomposition as determined by the capillary method
Reference
Results
A first endothermic effect was observed starting at a temperature of 180 °C. A second endothermic effect was detected starting at a temperature of 230 °C. No further thermal effects were observed up to the test end temperature of 500 °C.

The capillary method was performed in order
to identify and confirm the melting or boiling temperature of the test
item. While subject to a heating rate in a capillary, the test item
started to foam at a temperature of 140 °C. At 170 °C the test item
started to liquify, but continued to produce foam simultaneously until a
temperature of 215 °C. Starting at a temperature of 265 °C the test item
turned brown. At 400 °C the test was terminated and the test item was
black.
Combining the DSC measurements and the capillary method, neither melting
nor boiling can be assigned to the endothermic effects observed in the
DSC measurement.
Description of key information
The test item ammonium 2-ethylhexyl sulfate has no boiling point up to its decomposition as determined by the capillary method according to Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.2. and OECD Test Guideline 103 (1995).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
