Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Remarks on result:
other: Boiling of the test substance was not observed below the temperature at which reaction or decomposition.
Conclusions:
Reaction or decomposition of the substance was observed above 80°C (353 K). Boiling of the test substance was not observed below the temperature at which reaction or decomposition started.
Executive summary:

The study procedure used for the determination of the boiling temperature was based on the following guidelines:

European Economic Community (EEC), EEC-Directive 92/69 EEC, Part A, Methods for the determination of physico-chemical properties, A.2 "Boiling temperature", EEC Publication No. L383, December 1992.

Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), OECD guidelines for testing of Chemicals, guideline no. 103: "Boiling point", July 27, 1995.

Both the test substance and an inert reference were heated in a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The difference between the heat flow to the sample and the heat flow to the reference was recorded. Two experiments were performed.

Reaction or decomposition of the substance was observed above 80°C (353 K). Boiling of the test substance was not observed below the temperature at which reaction or decomposition started.

Description of key information

Reaction or decomposition of the substance was observed above 80°C (353 K). Boiling of the test substance was not observed below the temperature at which reaction or decomposition started.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
