Melting / freezing pt.:
< -50 °C

No congealing was observed down to the minimum temperature of -50 °C.

Conclusions:
The freezing point of the test substance was found to be <-50 °C.

Description of key information

Freezing point <-50 °C (OECD 102)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
-50 °C

Additional information

The test substance was tested to -50 °C for freezing point, but did not freeze in this temperature range. For the purposes of the Chemical Safety Assessment, the value of -50 °C has been adopted.
