Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

-19 °C

Additional information

A literature review was conducted. In a weight of evidence approach the literature values were evaluated. The Favier et al. 1981 (REAXYS 2014A) reports the melting point of the substance. to be -19 °C and Pouyet 1964 (REAXYS 2014B) report the melting point to be –18.4 °C. Furthermore the International Chemical Safety Cards (IPCS 2014) report the melting point to be -22.9 °C Three independent literature sources report the melting point in the same range. As the REAXYS database (former Beilstein) was regarded as most reliable source, a melting point of -19 °C was chosen as key value for chemical safety assessment.
