- Study period:
- 07/04/2015 - 14/04/2015
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.1 (Melting / Freezing Temperature)
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- yes
- Type of method:
- differential scanning calorimetry
- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- SOURCE OF TEST MATERIAL
- Source and lot/batch No.of test material:PREVOR, batch: 040801# - Key result
- Decomposition:
- yes
- Remarks on result:
- other: The material decomposes before melting and boiling
- Conclusions:
- The substance decomposes before the melting temperature.
- Executive summary:
The melting point assessment was evaluated using the DSC method, according to the EU A.1 test guideline. An exothermic reaction was significant of a decomposition of the test item before melting.
- Endpoint:
- melting point/freezing point
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- supporting study
- Study period:
- 31/03/2015
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.1 (Melting / Freezing Temperature)
- GLP compliance:
- yes
- Type of method:
- other: photocell detection
- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- SOURCE OF TEST MATERIAL
- Source and lot/batch No.of test material:PREVOR, batch 040801# - Key result
- Melting / freezing pt.:
- > 300 °C
- Conclusions:
- The melting temperature of the substance was considered > 300°C.
- Executive summary:
The melting point assessment was evaluated using the capillary method and photocell detection, according to the EU A.1 test guideline. No melting is observed up to 300°C, end of the temperature range of this method.
Referenceopen allclose all
The test item was observed to undergo an endothermic event from 319.05 °C which based on observations during the test using the photocell detection test, was not an indication of melting. On completion of testing the sample had decomposed to a black solid. The sample had expanded during the test and had burst open the crucible.

| Final melting point (°C) | N/A | N/A |
No melting up to 300°C. Heating was continued up to 350°C, expansion of sample and slight discoloration was observed from 310°C.
Description of key information
The substance decomposes before the melting temperature (EU Guideline A.1: Thermal analyses (Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC))).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
No melting point (substance decomposes before).
