Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
melting point/freezing point
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
29 January 2018
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
comparable to guideline study with acceptable restrictions
Remarks:
In-house study
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Differential scanning calorimetry was used. The system has been checked with a certified reference sample, BaCO3, for melting point accuracy and it is within specification.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
differential scanning calorimetry
Key result
Melting / freezing pt.:
775.7 °C
Atm. press.:
1 013 hPa
Conclusions:
The test item had a melting point of 775.7 +/- 0.7°C.
Executive summary:

Johnson Matthey (2018) is not GLP-compliant but followed a standard method for determining melting point (differential scanning calorimetry) and is acceptable with restrictions (Klimisch 2). A melting point of 775.7 +/- 0.7°C was determined for the test item.

Description of key information

The test item had a melting point of 775.7 +/- 0.7°C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
775.7 °C
