Key result
Atm. press.:
>= 100 - <= 101 kPa
Decomposition:
yes
Remarks:
Partial volatilisation from approximately 252 °C (525 K) with subsequent decomposition from approximately 310 °C (583 K).
Decomp. temp.:
>= 310 °C
Remarks on result:
not determinable
Remarks:
No quantitative value for melting / freezing point could be determined.

The several endothermic events occurring from approximately 252 °C were considered to be due to volatilisation of some of the components of the test item. Up to 310 °C this may have included some decomposition as the residue was dark brown in colour; certainly after this temperature the test item decomposed as any residue was now black. From considering the appearances of the residues, it was evident that the test item did not melt prior to volatilisation and decomposition.

Conclusions:
The test substance was determined to partially volatilise from approximately 252 °C (525 K) with subsequent decomposition from approximately 310 °C (583 K). As a result, no value for the melting point could be determined.

Description of key information

The test substance was determined to partially volatilise from approximately 252 °C (525 °K) with subsequent decomposition from approximately 310 °C (583 °K). As a result, no value for the melting point could be determined.
