Remarks:
capilary test
Boiling pt.:
332.7 °C
Atm. press.:
973 hPa
Remarks on result:
other: ± 0.3

Two samples were tested in a preliminary test and a total of four samples was used during the main test at reduced heating rates. The atmospheric pressure during the measurements was 97.3 kPa.

The sample colour was slightly yellow in the beginning and became transparent during the test (after melting occurred) and changed to yellow to slightly orange at the end of the test

Conclusions:
The boiling point of test substance was determined to be 332.7°C at 973 hPa
Executive summary:

In this guideline (OECD 103) study conducted to GLP standards, the test material (EC 444-860-9) was determined to have a boiling point of 332.7°C at 973 hPa.

Description of key information

Study conducted to recognised testing guidelines with GLP.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Boiling point at 101 325 Pa:
