Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Approximately 5 mg of the substance was sealed inside a 40 l aluminium crucible with a pinhole in the lid. This was then placed into a DSC cell which was cooled by liquid nitrogen. Because the melting/freezing takes place over a large temperature range including several peaks, an interval is
reported. Temperature program:From -100 to 30 ºC at a rate of 5 ºC per minute
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
other: Differential Scanning Calorimetry
