Quaternary ammonium compounds, C18 and C18 (unsaturated) alkyltrimethyl, chlorides

Boiling point

Administrative data

Endpoint:

boiling point

Data waiving:

study scientifically not necessary / other information available

Justification for data waiving:

the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is a solid which decomposes before boiling

Cross-reference

Reason / purpose for cross-reference:

data waiving: supporting information

Reference

The melting of the test substance was determined using the differential scanning calorimetry, according to Method AB46-1215 similar to ASTM E 537 – 07 (DSC) (Andersson, 2016).

Value used for CSA: no distinct melting temperature identified.

Several phase transitions were detected for the solvent free form of the test substance, Oleyl TMAC. The first one at -10°C was likely a phase transition. The second peak at 170°C did not correspond to melting as judged by looking at the sample in the oven. The third major peak, at 250°C, was likely decomposition as the sample in oven at that temperature was turned completely black. The sample appeared not to have a distinct melting temperature.
