Mean

 

 

178.5 °C (451.6 K)

Mean ± standard deviation (after correction following Sydney Young) = 178.5 ± 1.2 °C (451.6 ± 1.2 K) at standard pressure (101.325 kPa).

Conclusions:
The initial boiling point of the test item has been determined to be ca 178.5 ± 1.2 °C (451.6 ± 1.2 K), corrected to standard pressure (101.325 kPa).
Executive summary:

The initial boiling point of the test item was measured under GLP according to OECD 103 / EU A2 guideline, by Siwoloboff.The test item was filled into a sample tube.

The sample tube was then set into the aluminium block at 180.0 °C (first determination), at 165.0 °C (second determination) and 147.3°C (third determination).

For the increase of the temperature, a temperature gradient of 1 °C /min was maintained. When bubbles rose constantly on the capillary, heating was turned down, and, cooling slowly. The moment at which the chain of bubbles broke was recorded (with its atmospheric pressure) as boiling point. The determination was performed in duplicate with fresh samples.

The test item was unchanged after cooling down for each determination.

Description of key information

The initial boiling temperature of the test item has been determined to be ca 178.5± 1.2°C, corrected to standard pressure (101.325 kPa).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Boiling point at 101 325 Pa:
178.5 °C

Additional information

A fully reliable experimental study, conducted according to a recognized OECD/EC method and under GLP, is available. It is considered as a key study.

The initial boiling point of the test item was measured using the Siwoloboff method.The test item was filled into a sample tube.

The sample tube was then set into the aluminium block at 180.0 °C (first determination), at 165.0 °C (second determination) and 147.3°C (third determination).

For the increase of the temperature, a temperature gradient of 1 °C /min was maintained. When bubbles rose constantly on the capillary, heating was turned down, and, cooling slowly. The moment at which the chain of bubbles broke was recorded (with its atmospheric pressure) as boiling point. The determination was performed in duplicate with fresh samples.

The test item was unchanged after cooling down for each determination.
