Results and discussion

Melting / freezing point
Key result
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
ca. 166 °C
Remarks on result:
other: The absence of any phase transition (i.e. melting) prior to decomposition was confirmed by a visual metal-block apparatus evaluation. On heating, the test item gradually discolored, before collapsing into a black solid. No liquid phase was observed at any

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test item was determined to decompose, without melting, from approximately 166 °C (439 K). Decomposition was observed in both air and nitrogen atmospheres.
