Key result

Operating temp.:

100 - 170 °C

Remarks on result:

other: measured after 14 days at 54 °C storage

Remarks:

exothermic departure showing a possible decomposition or changing in chemical form of the test article.

Conclusions:

From 100 °C to 170 °C a slight possible decomposition behaviour or change in form was observed.

Executive summary:

A thermal stability test according to OECD 113 has been conducted on the test item. According to the test results, from 100 °C to 170 °C possible decomposition behaviour has been observed by DSC measurements.

Description of key information

A thermal stability test according to OECD 113 has been conducted on the test item. According to the test results, from 100 °C to 170 °C possible decomposition behaviour has been observed.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the results of the test, showing only a slight energy change between 100 and 170 °C, not clearly attributable to decomposition, the substance does not require classification as a self-heating substance.
