In aluminium pans with a hole, there were indicated three endothermic effects, a first one in the temperature range 70 - 85 °C, a second one from 120 to 155 °C, and a third one from 175 to 205 °C. An exothermal decomposition of the test substance starts at approximately 250 °C. The test substance doesn't show any endothermic effect between the endothermic transformation process and the temperature where the exothermal decomposition begins. Thus, neither a boiling point nor a boiling range exists at atmospheric pressure.

Description of key information

> 250 °C at 1013.3 hPa (decomposition)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The boiling behaviour of the substance was investigated in accordance with OECD Guideline 103 and EU Method A.2 using differential scanning calorimetry. No endothermic effects were observed between the endothermic transformation process and the temperature where the exothermal decomposition began (ca. 250 °C). Therefore neither the boiling point, nor the boiling range of the substance exists at the atmospheric pressure (1013.3 hPa).
