Observations pre-test

Observations

Temperatures

Test item started to melt

52 °C

Complete melted to a very slightly yellow liquid

65 °C

Now and then bubbles

Since 80 °C

Bubbles gone, up to 310 °C, the colour of the test item was from time to time darker

Since 150 °C

bubbles came again

Since 310 °C

Bubble chain with lots of small bubbles from the bottom, turned off gas burner

340 °C

The chain broke, the test item was brown liquid (decomposition during boiling)

300.0 °C

After cooling down the test item was brown liquid with dark brown deposit on the wall of the test tube over the liquid surface

 

Results Main Test

Determinations

Boiling point under decomp.

First determination (showed high deviation and was not used for evaluation)

300.8 °C (574.0 K)

Second determination

272.1 °C (554.3 K)

Third determination

272.4 °C (545.6 K)

Mean

272.3 °C (545.4 K)

Standard deviation

0.2 °C ( 0.2 K)

Conclusions:
The boiling point of the test substance ROC-601 was determined with 272.3 ± 0.2 °C (545.4 ± 0.2 K) under decomposition.
Executive summary:

The boiling point of the test substance was determined following the SIWOLOBOFF method. The boiling point under decomposition was determined with 272.3 ± 0.2 °C (545.4 ± 0.2 K).

This value is the mean of two independent determinations ± their standard deviation.

Decomposition was indicated by colour change and physical state change. As the test item decomposed during boiling, correction to standard pressure (101.325 kPa) using the Sidney-Young equation was not applied.

Description of key information

The substance ROC-601 has a boiling point of 272.3 °C under decomposition, indicated by colour change.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Boiling point at 101 325 Pa:
272.3 °C

Additional information

The boiling point of the test substance was determined following the SIWOLOBOFF method by which the boiling point under decomposition was determined to be 272.3 ± 0.2 °C (545.4 ± 0.2 K) as the mean of two independent determinations ± their standard deviation. Decomposition of the substance was indicated by colour change and physical state change.
