Reference
Endpoint:
melting point/freezing point
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
09 February 2010 – 19 April 2010
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Remarks:
This study has been performed according to OECD and EC guidelines and according to GLP principles.
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 (DSC)
Key result
Melting / freezing pt.:
>= -49 - <= -1 °C
Atm. press.:
1 013.25 hPa
Remarks on result:
other: Because Blown rapeseed oil consists of many compounds, a melting range was measured instead of a melting temperature
Conclusions:
The melting temperature of Blown rapeseed oil was determined using DSC. Because Blown rapeseed oil consists of many compounds, a melting range was measured instead of a melting temperature: - 49 to -1 °C (224 to 272 K).

Description of key information

The melting temperature of Blown rapeseed oil was determined using DSC.  Because Blown rapeseed oil consists of many compounds, a melting range was measured instead of a melting temperature: - 49 to -1 °C (224 to 272 K).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
-1 °C
