Description of key information

The melting point determination of 1-phenylazo-2-naphthol (CAS No. 842-07-9) was done following OECD Guideline 102 and according to the metal block capillary method. The test was conducted in replicates and mean melting temperature range was determined to be 157.1°C -162.3°C at 976.8hPa.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
157.1 °C

Additional information

The melting point determination of 1-phenylazo-2-naphthol (CAS No. 842-07-9) was done following OECD Guideline 102 and according to the metal block capillary method. The test was conducted in replicates and mean melting temperature range was determined to be 157.1°C -162.3°C at 976.8hPa.

Other supporting studies from various reliable sources such as authoritative database and handbooks suggests that the melting point of chemical was reported to be in the range of 131 degree C to 134 degree C.

As the data from lab has K1 reliability and the test was performed using OECD guidelines which has the value of melting point temperature as 157.1 degree C to 162.3 degree C, thus considered as key study for the chemical safety assessment.
