Specific details on test material used for the study:
Batch No.: 13111BR
Purity: 99.3 %
Key result
Boiling pt.:
240.8 °C
Atm. press.:
1 013.25 hPa
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
ca. 250 °C

A DSC-Scan, recorded in connection to the determination of the vapour pressure, showed an exothermal decomposition of the test substance beginning at approx. 250 °C. This scan was performed with the test substance in a closed glass pan. Under these conditions the boiling point of the substance was not detectable.

Based on these results it can be stated, that the test substance decomposes while boiling.

Conclusions:
The boiling point of the test item was determined to be 240.8 °C.
Executive summary:

The boiling temperature of the test item was determined according to EPA-Guideline 830.7220 and EEC-Guideline 92/69/EEC A.2. Therefore, a sufficient amount of test substance was filled into glass tubes, which were inserted into the thermosystem at a defined start temperature. The boiling point of the test substance (at 101.3 kPa) was 240.8 °C = 514.0 K
