Reference
Endpoint:
boiling point
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2002
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Justification for type of information:
Study was carried out according to generally valid and internationally accepted testing guidelines and under GLP. Test substance is adequately characterised. Therefore full validation applies.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 103 (Boiling point/boiling range)
Version / remarks:
1995
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
tested sample quantity was < 100 ml
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.2 (Boiling Temperature)
Version / remarks:
1992
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
tested sample quantity was < 100 ml
Principles of method if other than guideline:
not applicable
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Remarks:
Inspection date : 28/29 November 2002; validity : till 17 July 2004
Type of method:
distillation method
Atm. press.:
936 hPa
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
> 250 °C

Preliminary assay:

180 g of the test item were liquefied at approximately 275°C. The test item solidify in the round flask.

Thus, the test item was placed directly in the test flask and was melted (less than 100 ml was obtained). The liquid obtained was brown/red.

After 25 minutes of heating, the vapour temperature was approximately 135°C; the test was stopped because of solidification of the test item in the test flask.

No distillation range could be determined under the experimental conditions.

Conclusions:
Sodium Chlorate decomposes when liquified at 93.6 kPa (i.e. > 250°C).
Executive summary:

The Boiling point of test item was determined according to EU method A.2. / OECD 103 guideline (using distillation method) and under GLP.

Sodium Chlorate decomposes when liquified at 93.6 kPa (i.e. > 250°C).

Therefore, no boiling point can be determined using this method.

Description of key information

Decomposes > 250°C at 936 hPa

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

A fully reliable experimental study, conducted according to a recognized OECD/EC method and under GLP, is available. It is considered as a key study.
