Any other information on results incl. tables

During the cooling phase down to -100°C no thermal effect could be observed. The endothermic effect during the heating pahse in the temperature range of -80°C to -60°C, cannot be clearly assigned to the melting of the test item due to the very low. The second endothermic effect was observed in the temperature range of 40 to 220 °C, which can be assigned to the boiling of the test item.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test item Imidazolium compounds, 2-C4-8-alkyl-1-(2-carboxyethyl)-4,5-dihydro-3-(hydroxyethyl), hydroxides, sodium salts (CAS no. 70983-43-6) showed a phase transformation in the temperature range of -80 to -60°C. It has no melting point at atmospheric pressure (1002 - 1016 hPa), as determined by differential scanning calorimetry according to Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.1. and OECD Test Guideline 102 (1995).
