104 °C
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
>= 193 °C
Sublimation:
no

Any other information on results incl. tables

The sharp endothermic peak with onset 103°C is due to melting.

The product starts to decompose in the sealed vial at 193°C with a mean energy of 187 J/g. Additional decomposition energy is released in a second process starting at about 370°C, Taking into account the safety margin of 100 K to the beginning of the reaction in a DSC experiment, the product can be handled safely up to 93°C.
