Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- melting point/freezing point
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 2011-03-01 to 2011-05-10
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: Study conducted 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
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EPA OPPTS 830.7200 (Melting Point / Melting Range)
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:

- Remarks:
- Date of Inspection: 26 and 27 October 2010 Date of Signature: 8 February 2011
- Type of method:
- method to determine freezing temperature
- Key result
- Melting / freezing pt.:
- < -50 °C
- Remarks on result:
- other: Atmospheric pressure was not reported.
- Melting / freezing pt.:
- < 223.15 K
- Remarks on result:
- other: Atmospheric pressure was not reported.
- Conclusions:
- No freezing point was observed down to a temperature of -50 °C (223.15 K). Therefore: Freezing point of Benzyl Salicylate was determined to be less than -50 °C (223.15 K).
- Executive summary:
- The freezing point of Benzyl Salicylate was measured according to the OECD guideline No. 102 (method of freezing temperature). No freezing was observed down to a temperature of -50 °C (223.15 K). Therefore, Freezing point of Benzyl Salicylate was determined to be less than -50 °C (223.15 K).
Reference
PERFORMANCE OF THE PRETEST
Calibration of the thermometer
The thermometer was checked against a certified thermometer. A correction did not need to be applied.
Preliminary test
The preliminary test was performed and no congestion was observed down to a temperature of - 50 °C.
Main Test
As no congealing was observed in the preliminary test, no further tests were undertaken
Description of key information
No freezing point was observed down to a temperature of -50 °C (223.15 K). Therefore: Freezing point of Benzyl Salicylate was determined to be less than -50 °C (223.15 K).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
- -50 °C
