Results and discussion

Melting / freezing point
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
ca. 330 °C

Any other information on results incl. tables

The sample did not melt below 400ºC, however a colour change (red to black) was noted at ca 330ºC. This is recorded as a decomposition.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
There was no melting point before the degradation of test item (at approximately 330°C an apparent decomposition was observed, the red powder became black). Therefore, the melting point (or melting range) of the test item was not determined.
Executive summary:

Introduction

The study was conducted to determine the melting point or melting range, the capillary method was used following the guidelines set out by Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), Guidelines for Testing of

Chemicals, Guideline No. 102, “Melting Point /Melting Range”; adopted July 27, 1995

Method

A small amount of the test item was heated in the electronic controlled sample block and the temperature around the sample was displayed. The sample was observed visually while raising the temperature. The initial and final melting temperatures were determined.

Results and discussion

No melting point was observed up to 400 ºC, but the colour of test item changed about 330ºC from initial red to black.
