Results and discussion

Melting / freezing point
Key result
Melting / freezing pt.:
35 °C

Any other information on results incl. tables

In the DSC curve a small glass transition peak was observed at approximately 0 °C in the first experiment. An endothermic peak was observed between 25 and 75 °C. Melting of the test substance probably caused this effect.The extrapolated onset temperature of this peak was determined to be 35 °C. An endothermic effect started at 275 °C. This effect was due to reaction and/or decomposition of the test substance.

The second experiment showed essentially the same results a sduring the first experiment.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
A melting point of 35 °C was observed
Executive summary:

The melting point of the substance was determined by DSC measurement according to OECD guideline 102.

In the DSC curve a small glass transition peak was observed at approximately 0 °C. An endothermic peak was observed between 25 and 75 °C. Melting of the test substance probably caused this effect.The extrapolated onset temperature of this peak was determined to be 35 °C. An endothermic effect started at 275 °C.
