Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information

Melting point: <80.0 °C (OECD 102)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
-80 °C

Additional information

Three measured melting point values from the same author (Haas, 2017) are available for the substance.

A melting point value of <-80.0°C at 1013 hPa was determined for the substance using a Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) method in accordance with OECD Test Guideline 102. The value is considered to be reliable and is selected as key value. Additionally, a melting point of <-50.0°C at 1013 hPa was determined for the substance using a cloud point method in accordance with the ISO 3015 test method and a melting point of <-50.0°C at 1013 hPa was determined for the substance using a pour point method in accordance with the OECD Test Guideline 102.

All three studies were conducted in compliance with a known quality system (ISO 9001:2008).
