Reference
Endpoint:
melting point/freezing point
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
24 May 2011
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Valid method
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)
Type of method:
thermal analysis
Atm. press.:
ca. 1 atm
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
288 °C

No melting was observed. Decomposition (with a mean energy of -218 J/g from two measurements) started at 288 °C.

Conclusions:
The test substance decomposes at 288 °C instead of melting.
Executive summary:

The thermal behaviour of the test substance was determined with Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements. No melting was observed. Decomposition started at 288 °C.

Description of key information

The test substance decomposes at 288 °C instead of melting.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
