Description of key information

Melting point/freezing point: -38 °C

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
-38 °C

Additional information

A melting point value of -38 °C is reported in a handbook (Merck, 1996) which has been subject to peer-review and in which the original data sources are traceable. The result is considered to be reliable and has been assigned as key study. Similar boiling points of -38 to -44°C are reported in various secondary sources.
