Melting point / freezing point
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- melting point/freezing point
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 102 (Melting point / Melting Range)
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Type of method:
- thermal analysis
- Remarks:
- DSC
- Key result
- Atm. press.:
- ca. 1 atm
- Decomposition:
- yes
- Decomp. temp.:
- ca. 215.9 °C
- Conclusions:
- The substace melting point was determined by DSC according to OECD 102. The decomposition of the substance was observed with onset temperature equal to 215.9°C.
- Executive summary:
The substance melting point was tested by thermoanalysis (DSC) according to OECD 102. An endothermic peak was observed between 115 -148 °C, followed by substance decomposition between 216 -353 °C. The decomposition onset is 215.9°C with an enthalpy energy of 489.9 J/g (REACH&Colours, 2015).
- Endpoint:
- melting point/freezing point
- Type of information:
- other: estimated by calculation
- Adequacy of study:
- supporting study
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- results derived from a valid (Q)SAR model and falling into its applicability domain, with adequate and reliable documentation / justification
- Qualifier:
- no guideline required
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Type of method:
- other: estimation by EPIWEB v. 4.11
- Key result
- Melting / freezing pt.:
- ca. 349.84 °C
- Atm. press.:
- ca. 1 atm
- Remarks on result:
- other: the value was estimated by EPIWEB v 4.11
- Conclusions:
- The melting point was estimated by EPIWEB v 4.11. The value of melting point is 349.84 °C at 1 atm.
- Executive summary:
The melting point was estimated by EPIWEB v 4.11. The value of melting point is 349.84 °C at 1 atm (REACH&Colours, 2016).

Additional information
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.
