Specific details on test material used for the study:
STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL
- Storage condition of test material: Controlled room temperature (15-25°C, below 70 RH%)
Key result
Atm. press.:
98 kPa
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
240 °C
Remarks on result:
not determinable
Remarks:
Over 240 °C the test item colour changed to brown and charred.

No boiling point was observed up to 240 °C. Over 240 °C the test item colour changed to brown and charred. Therefore, it was concluded that the test item decomposed at 240°C before boiling.

Conclusions:
The test item decomposed at 240°C before boiling.
Executive summary:

For the determination of the boiling point, the capillary method is used.

A small amount of the test item is heated in the electronic controlled sample block and the temperature around the sample is displayed. The sample is observed visually while raising the temperature. A phase transformation from liquid to vapour usually is deduced by the formation of bubbles. The test item is assessed visually for any possible changes in its appearance, consistency and colour. The initial temperature of boiling or other effects observed is registered with the corresponding heating temperature.

The test item decomposed at 240°C before boiling.

Description of key information

The boiling point was determined with the capillary method (EU Method A.2 and OECD guideline 103) and under GLP. No deviation from the guidelines was observed during the test.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
