- Expiry date: 28 October 2023
TREATMENT OF TEST MATERIAL PRIOR TO TESTING
- Treatment of test material prior to testing (e.g. warming, grinding): none - Key result
- Melting / freezing pt.:
- ca. 250 °C
- Atm. press.:
- ca. 1 013.25 hPa
- Decomposition:
- yes
- Decomp. temp.:
- ca. 250 °C
- Conclusions:
- In a GLP-compliant study according to OECD Test Guideline 102, the melting point of cellobiose was in the range of 245.7 – 253.4 °C and decomposed immediately after melting, before reaching its boiling point.
- Executive summary:
In a GLP-compliant study according to OECD Test Guideline 102, the melting point of cellobiose was in the range of 245.7 – 253.4 °C. Based on the results of the differential scanning calorimetry curves and the appearance of test item after the tests, the test item starts to decompose immediately after melting, before it reaches its boiling point.
Reference
The melting point was in the range of 245.7 – 253.4 °C. Based on the results of the differential scanning calorimetry curves and the appearance of test item after the tests, the test item starts to decompose immediately after melting, before it reaches its boiling point.
Description of key information
In a GLP-compliant study according to OECD Test Guideline 102, the melting point of cellobiose was in the range of 245.7 – 253.4 °C and decomposed immediately after melting, before reaching its boiling point.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
- 250 °C
Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
