98.3 kPa
Remarks on result:
other: mean result of two determinations; <- 20 ± 0.5 °C or < 253 ± 0.5 K
Conclusions:
The freezing temperature of the test item has been determined to be less than 253 ± 0.5 K (or < - 20 ± 0.5 °C).
Executive summary:

The melting/freezing temperature was determined using EU Method A.1 and OECD TG 102 - crystallisation point / freezing temperature method under GLP. The mean freezing temperature of the test item has been determined to be less than 253 ± 0.5 K or less than -20 ± 0.5 °C at 1 atmosphere pressure.
