Observations: The test item did not freeze during cooling.

Overall result: Freezing point <-20 ± 0.5˚C (<253 ± 0.5 K)

Conclusions:
The melting point/ freezing point of the substance has been determined to be <-20 ± 0.5˚C (<253 ± 0.5 K).
Executive summary:

The melting point/ freezing point was determined using a technique designed to be compatible with Method EU A.1 and OECD 102. The freezing point of the substance was observed to be < 21˚C on two occassions.

The melting point/ freezing point of the substance has been determined to be <-20 ± 0.5˚C (<253 ± 0.5 K).

Description of key information

EU Method A.1, 2017 - The melting point/ freezing point was determined using a technique designed to be compatible with Method EU A.1 and OECD 102. The freezing point of the substance was observed to be < 21˚C on two occassions.

The melting point/ freezing point of the substance has been determined to be <-20 ± 0.5˚C (<253 ± 0.5 K).

Key value for chemical safety assessment
