Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- boiling point

- Version / remarks:
- adopted on 27 July 1995
- Deviations:
- no
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.2 (Boiling Temperature)
- Version / remarks:
- 2008
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Type of method:
- other: thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry
- Atm. press.:
- 2 015 hPa
- Decomposition:
- yes
- Decomp. temp.:
- > 260 °C
- Conclusions:
- no boiling point detected; decomposition above 260 °C (1015 hPa)
- Executive summary:
The boiling temperature of polyglycerin caprylate/caprinate was determined by differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetry according to the OECD Test Guideline 103 and EU test method A.2.
No boiling point could be detected, as decomposition started above 260 °C (1015 hPa).
Reference
The thermic behaviour of the test item was tested with a boiling point capillary from room temperature up to 300 °C with a heating rate of 10 °C/min using a melting point system. Starting at 210 °C, the specimen became more and more colorized to brown. At 300 °C the specimen fumed.
The recorded main weight loss above 259.9 °C (estimated onset on TGA) may indicate a beginning evaporation (boiling). However, based on the visual inspection and on the knowledge of the chemical structure a product decomposition is more likely.
Description of key information

No boiling point could be detected, as decomposition started above 260 °C (1015 hPa).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
