Conclusions:
The test item boils at 277.6 °C at 1013.25 hPa.
Executive summary:

An experimental study was performed to determine the boiling point of the test item according to EU method A.2 and OECD Guideline 103 using the capillary method with photocell detection. The boiling point was determined in three individual measurements and corrected for 1013.25 hPa. The colour of the test substance changed during the measurement . Therefore, it is concluded that the test item boils at 277.6 °C at 1013.25 hPa.

Description of key information
