Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Results

The DSC diagrams show a freezing temperature (onset exothermic peak) at 13.9 °C (287.1 K) and a melting temperature (onset endothermic peak) at 16.0 °C (289.2 K).

There was no indication of any discernible decomposition in the diagrams.

Conclusions:
A freezing point value of 13.9°C at 1013 hPa and a melting point value of 16.0°C at 1013 hPa was determined in a reliable study conducted according to an appropriate test protocol. It was not compliant with GLP.
