Results and discussion
Melting / freezing point
- Melting / freezing pt.:
- 60 °C
- Decomposition:
- no
- Remarks on result:
- other: Pressure not given.
Any other information on results incl. tables
The DSC measurement in a closed glass crucible with the test item showed an endothermic effect in the temperature range 35-100 °C (onset: 59.91 °C) which indicates melting of the sample.
In this study, decomposition was not observed as the measurement was conducted under nitrogen atmosphere.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The test item has a melting point of 60 °C.
- Executive summary:
The melting point of the test substance was determined by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). The test item has a melting point of 60 °C.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
