Reference
Endpoint:
melting point/freezing point
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
04 Aug 2011
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Comparable to guideline study (EU A.1) with acceptable restrictions
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.1 (Melting / Freezing Temperature)
Principles of method if other than guideline:
DSC measurement according to company guideline.
Type of method:
thermal analysis
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
ca. 313 °C

There is no endothermic effect (melting/boiling) in the DSC curves.

The product starts to decompose in the sealed vial at 313 °C with a mean energy of 80 J/g (2 measurements).

Conclusions:
The test substance does not melt. Decomposition takes place at ca. 313 °C.
Executive summary:

The thermal behaviour of the test substance was investigated by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). The test substance does not melt. Decomposition takes place at ca. 313 °C.
