Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Endpoint:
melting point/freezing point
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2 August 2006 to 8 December 2006
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Study conducted to GLP in compliance with agreed protocols, with no or minor deviations from standard test guidelines and/or minor methodological deficiencies, which do not affect the quality of the relevant results.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 102 (Melting point / Melting Range)
Deviations:
no
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.1 (Melting / Freezing Temperature)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Type of method:
other: differential scanning calorimetry
Melting / freezing pt.:
> 633 K
Remarks on result:
other: Atmospheric pressure not reported, but assumed to be standard atmospheric room pressure.
Melting / freezing pt.:
> 360 °C
Remarks on result:
other: Atmospheric pressure not reported, but assumed to be standard atmospheric room pressure.

Overall result: melting temperature greater than 360°C (633 K).

Conclusions:
The melting temperature of the test material has been determined to be greater than 633 ± 0.5K.
Executive summary:

In a general physico-chemical properties study (0370/0351), the melting/freezing temperature of the test material was determined to be greater than 633 ± 0.5 K (360 ± 0.5 °C), according to OECD Test Method 102.

Description of key information

The melting temperature of the test material has been determined to be greater than 633 ± 0.5K.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

In a general physico-chemical properties study (0370/0351), the melting/freezing temperature of the test material was determined to be greater than 633 ± 0.5 K (360 ± 0.5 °C), according to OECD Test Method 102. The study was awarded a reliability score of 1 in accordance with the criteria set forth by Klimisch et al. (1997).
