For the correction of the boiling point to standard atmospheric pressure (1013.3 hPa) the equation, table and graphs of H.B. Hass and R.F. Newton in „CRC Handbook of Chemistry and

Physics, 74th ed. 1993-1994", pages 15-16 and 15-17 were used.

Conclusions:
The test item has a boiling range between 394 °C and 396 °C under atmospheric conditions.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted according to OECD test guideline 103, Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 method A.2 to determine the boiling point of the test item using differential scanning calorimetry. The test item was weighed out into an aluminium crucible under an inert atmosphere (nitrogen). Two tests with about 10 mg of the test item were performed. As reference crucible, an empty aluminium crucible was used. In a defined atmosphere (nitrogen) the test item is heated up from ambient temperature to the final temperature (25 and 500 °C, respectively) at a constant heating rate (10 K/min). The quantity of heat absorbed or released is measured and recorded. The measurements in aluminium crucibles with a hole showed boiling range between 394 °C and 396 °C under atmospheric conditions.

Description of key information

Additional information

A study was conducted according to OECD test guideline 103, Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 method A.2 to determine the boiling point of the test item using differential scanning calorimetry (reference 4.3 -1). The test item was weighed out into an aluminium crucible under an inert atmosphere (nitrogen). Two tests with about 12 -23 mg of the test item were performed. As reference crucible, an empty aluminium crucible was used. In a defined atmosphere (nitrogen) the test item is heated up from ambient temperature to the final temperature (150 and 500 °C, respectively) at a constant heating rate (10 K/min). The quantity of heat absorbed or released is measured and recorded. The measurements in aluminium crucibles with a hole showed a boiling range between 394 °C and 396 °C under atmospheric conditions.
