Additional information

Cuthbert JE and Mullee DM (2005) is a GLP-compliant study following EU method A1. It is reliable without restrictions and can be used as a key study for this endpoint. The melting temperature of the test material has been determined to be greater than 360 °C by differential scanning calorimetry, using ASTM E537-86, Method A1 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC.
