Thermal Stability: 


The DSC-measurement in a closed glass crucible showed an exothermal decompositon in the temperature range of 230 - 365 °C with an energy of 985 J/g. 


 


Vapour presseure (dynamic method):


The vapour pressure was measured with the dynamic method in the temperature range of 66 °C to 168 °C. The measured vapour pressure at the corresponding temperatures are listed in the following table: 





















































Temperature / °C Vapour pressure / hPa 
72.515.1
95.2550.6
111.58 100.8
128.94 200.1
157.42500.6
167.75684.6
162.89599.9
140.25300.1
121.51150.5
84.6229.5
66.3  9.6

 


The values for 20, 25 and 50 °C are calculated, using the Antoine constants A, B and C as shown:


Parameters of the Antoine equation (log (p/hPa) = A+B/(C+T[°C])


A= 6.232749


B = -985.60


C= 121.99


 


The resuslts for the vapour pressures are:


 

























T / °Cp/hPap/Pa
200.20.20
250.340.34
503.18318
