Results


The DSC measurements were performed twice. A crucible lid with a hole of 50 µm diameter was used in the measurements to determine a


possible boiling point more precisely. The small hole facilitates the generation of a defined atmosphere at constant pressure inside the crucible and allows measurements at near equilibrium conditions, thus preventing evaporation of the test material before reaching the boiling point.


 


Upon heating the heat flow curve exhibited a noisy trace and then a single endothermic peak (peak maximum: 255°C/254°C; extrapolated onset temperature: 247.85°C / 247.44°C) indicating the boiling temperature at ambient pressure. After the measurements the sample had lost 97.1 – 97.6% of its original mass. A very little residue could be observed on the bottom of the crucible brink. Due to the multiple-stage course of the thermogravimetric measurement and the approximate 3% residue after the DSC measurement, it was assumed that the temperature given here represents a partial boiling.


 


Since the ambient pressure deviated from the standard pressure, the measured boiling temperatures T were converted to normal boiling points by means of the Sidney-Young equation.

The boiling temperature of the test item was determined by differential scanning calorimetry according to OECD Test Guideline 103 (adopted on 27 July 1995) and EU Method A.2 “Boiling temperature”, Council Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008.  


 


Boiling temperature: 248°C (1013 hPa)

Conclusions:
A boiling point value of 248 °C at 1013 hPa was determined in a reliable study conducted according to an appropriate test protocol, and in compliance with GLP.
