Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

After heating to 400 °C, the residues had lost approximately 92% and 100% of their original weight for Determinations 1 and 2, respectively.

Mean boiling point: 208 ± 1.0 °C (481 ± 1.0 K)

Atmospheric pressure: 101.2 kPa

The presence of a light amber stain as the residue on the crucible base after the test was attributed to possible decomposition during boiling.

Conclusions:
The boiling point of the test item has been determined to be 208 ± 1.0 °C (481 ± 1.0 K) at 101.2 kPa.
Executive summary:

The boiling point of the test item was determined to be 208 ± 1.0 °C (481 ± 1.0 K) at 101.2 kPa by differential scanning calorimetry, using a procedure designed to be compatible with Method A.2 Boiling Temperature of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 103 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 27 July 1995.
