Executive summary:

Melting/Freezing Temperature:

Differential scanning calorimetry, using ASTM E537-86 and Methods A1 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC.

Description of key information

Melting/Freezing Temperature of the substance is greater than 633 K/360°C, by differential scanning calorimetry, using ASTM E537-86 and Methods A1 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
360 °C

Additional information

Melting/Freezing Temperature of the substance is greater than 633 K/360°C, by differential scanning calorimetry, using ASTM E537-86 and Methods A1 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC.

The test described above meet the requirements of OECD Test Guidelines and are assigned to be reliability 1 data according to the scoring system of Klimisch et al (Klimischet al., 1997). This ranking was deemed appropriate because the studies were conducted at the GLP certified laboratory and were in compliance with agreed protocols, with no or minor deviations from standard test guidelines and/or minor methodological deficiencies, which do not affect the quality of relevant results.
