- Determination 2:296.49 °C (570 K)

- Determination 3: 254.12 °C (527 K)

- Determination 4: 247.76 °C (521 K)

Conclusions:
In a valid, reliable and conclusive study according to OECD TG 103 (1995) and Method A2 (EC) No 440/2008, the boiling temperature of the test item was determined. The test item boiled partially, with decomposition, from approximately 284 °C (557 K) at 100.5 to 101.3 kPa. Decomposition was observed both in air and under a nitrogen atmosphere. Therefore, due to thermal decomposition, a definitive boiling point cannot be determined.
Executive summary:

The study was performed to determine the boiling temperature of the test item according to OECD TG 103 (1995) and Method A2 (EC) No 440/2008. The test item boiled partially, with decomposition, from approximately 284 °C (557 K), at 100.5 to 101.3 kPa. Decomposition was observed both in air and under a nitrogen atmosphere. Therefore, due to thermal decomposition, a definitive boiling point cannot be determined.

Description of key information

Approximately 284 °C, however due to thermal decomposition, a definitive boiling point cannot be determined, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), OECD 103, O'Connor 2014.
