The mean of at least two measurements, which are in the range of the estimated accuracy, is reported as the freezing temperature/range.

The temperature range of the equipment is -20 °C to 150 °C.

Sample was stored at approximately -24 °C for 24 hours. As the evaluation test result was < -20 °C, no further testing was required.

Conclusions:
Freezing Point < -20°C
Executive summary:

Freezing Point < -20 °C

Description of key information

Freezing Point < -20 °C.

Study conducted to recognised testing guidelines with GLP certification

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
-20 °C
