liquid
Key result
Form:
liquid
Colour:
Colourless (Transparent and clear). No Munsell notation for colour could be assigned to the test material
Odour:
other: Due to the very high toxicity of the test material the odour was not investigated as this could cause a health risk for the personnel involved.

Colour

- The test material was colourless (transparent and clear). No Munsell notation for color could be assigned to the test material.

Physical state

- The test material was noted to be liquid at a temperature of 20.4 – 20.5 °C. Since the boiling point of the test material is 42.5 °C, part of the test material will be present in the gas form at 20 °C. Therefore the test material is a volatile liquid.

Conclusions:
The test material was a colourless (transparent and clear) liquid at 20.4 – 20.5 °C.
Executive summary:

The physical state of the test material was investigated in accordance with the standardised guidelines OPPTS 830.6302 and OPPTS 830.6303, under GLP conditions.

The test material was colourless (transparent and clear). No Munsell notation for colour could be assigned to the test material. The test material was noted to be liquid at a temperature of 20.4 – 20.5 °C. Since the boiling point of the test material is 42.5 °C, part of the test material will be present in the gas form at 20 °C. Therefore the test material is a volatile liquid.

The odour (OPPTS 830.6304 (U.S. EPA, 1996c) was not investigated owing to the very high toxicity of the test material combined with a very high volatility. Therefore, testing of the odour could cause a health risk for the personnel involved.

The test material was a colourless (transparent and clear) liquid at 20.4 – 20.5 °C.

Brumhard (2011)

The physical state of the test material was investigated in accordance with the standardised guidelines OPPTS 830.6302 and OPPTS 830.6303, under GLP conditions. The study was awarded a reliability score of 1 in accordance with the criteria set forth by Klimisch et al. (1997).

The test material was colourless (transparent and clear). No Munsell notation for colour could be assigned to the test material. The test material was noted to be liquid at a temperature of 20.4 – 20.5 °C. Since the boiling point of the test material is 42.5 °C, part of the test material will be present in the gas form at 20 °C. Therefore the test material is a volatile liquid.

The odour (OPPTS 830.6304 (U.S. EPA, 1996c) was not investigated owing to the very high toxicity of the test material combined with a very high volatility. Therefore, testing of the odour could cause a health risk for the personnel involved.

The test material was a colourless (transparent and clear) liquid at 20.4 – 20.5 °C.
