Any other information on results incl. tables

First test results

The heat flow record showed an upward departure from the base line at 220 °C. It means there is an exothermic effect starting from 220 °C: an exothermic chemical transformation occured before the boiling point and boiling point could be measured.

 

Second test results

The heat flow record showed an upward departure from the base line at 211 °C. It means there is an exothermic effect starting from 211 °C: an exothermic chemical transformation occured before the boiling point and boiling point could be measured.

 

Conclusion

DSC test showed an exothermic effect starting at 220 °C and at 211 °C respectively, in duplicate tests. It means that an exothermic chemical transformation occurs before the boiling point.

The boiling point of the test item could not be measured.
