Description of key information
Several independent sources of information indicate that the melting point is included in a range of 97.78°C – 97.91°C at 1013 hPa.
Considering a weight of evidence approach, an average value of 97.85°C at 101 325 Pa will be considered as a key value.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
- 97.85 °C
Additional information
Several independent and peer-reviewed sources of information indicate that the melting point is included in a range of 97.82°C – 97.91°C at 1013 hPa.
The melting point of the substance is reported to be 97.82°C (Merck Index, 2001) , 97.82°C (Douglas, 1954), 97.90°C (Rengade, 1914), 97.91°C (Meyer et Nachtrieb, 1955) and 97.81°C (CRC, 1987) at 101 325 Pa.
An average value of 97.85 °C will be considered in this dossier.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
