Atm. press.:
ca. 1 013 hPa
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
> 335.53 - < 340.18 °C

Any other information on results incl. tables

An exotherm was observed, with a mean onset temperature of 338°C (mean of 335.53°C and 340.18°C) and a mean energy of 870 J/g (mean of 729.82 J/g and 1009.29 J/g). A charred, black residue remained in the crucibles at the end of the test confirming decomposition had occurred. The thermograms are shown in Figure 21 and Figure 22 (attached).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
No boiling point obtained. An exotherm was observed, with a mean onset temperature of 338°C (mean of 335.53°C and 340.18°C) and a mean energy of 870 J/g (mean of 729.82 J/g and 1009.29 J/g). A charred, black residue remained in the crucibles at the end of the test confirming decomposition had occurred.
Executive summary:

In this guideline (OECD 103) study, [conducted with GLP certification], an exotherm was observed, with a mean onset temperature of 338°C (mean of 335.53°C and 340.18°C) and a mean energy of 870 J/g (mean of 729.82 J/g and 1009.29 J/g). A charred, black residue remained in the crucibles at the end of the test confirming decomposition had occurred.
