Description of key information

The data requirement is waived, but the discussion enables to conclude that the boiling point is <= -191°C at 1 atm.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Since the substance is a gas made at ~97% of the following three constituents, it can be deduced that its boiling point is <= -191°C at 1 atm:

  • Carbon monoxide: -191.5 °C at 1 atm from two sources (Air Liquide. Gas Encyclopedia - CO.

CRC Press, Taylor & Francis, Boca Raton, FL, 2007, p. 3-88).
  • Hydrogen: -252.8°C at 1 atm from two sources (Air Liquide. Gas Encyclopedia - H2.
