Description of key information

The boiling point of the test item sodium lauroyl glutamate cannot be determined as it decomposes before a boiling point is reached. The onset of decomposition is 350 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The boiling point of the test item at atmospheric presssure cannot be determined by differential scanning calorimetry according to OECD guideline No. 103 as it decomposes before a boiling point is reached. The onset of decomposition is 350 °C.

To confirm this interpretation, the boiling point was estimated with Syracuse software. The predicted boiling point, 726 °C, is far beyond the stability of an organic substance.
