Remarks on result:
other: The test item had no melting point above -50 °C.

The first DSC measurement was performed from ambient temperature to -50 °C with a cooling rate of 3 K/min, an isothermal phase at -50 °C for 60 minutes and heating up to 50 °C with 10 K/min. The measurement showed a small endothermal effect only in the heating up phase in the temperature range of -5 °C to 15 °C.

The test item was a highly viscous substance, which was rated as a solid according to the Penetrometer test. After the measurements the test item was unchanged. No mass loss occurred.

Conclusions:
The test item had no melting point above -50 °C.
Executive summary:

The test item had no melting point above -50 °C.

Description of key information

The substance has no melting point above -50 °C.
