Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the melting point of the substance, according to OECD Guideline 102 using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Under the study conditions, the substance melting point was determined to be 172.6ºC at 101.3 kPa (Carrillo, 2017).

Description of key information

The melting point was determined according to OECD Guideline 102 and ASTM Method E 536 -86 (Carillo, 2017).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
172.6 °C
