- 1 atm
- Decomposition:
- no
- Conclusions:
- The melting point was -24°C at 1 atm according to test method ASTM D97-66.
- Executive summary:
The melting point was -24°C at 1 atm according to test method ASTM D97-66.
- Endpoint:
- melting point/freezing point
- Type of information:
- read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
- Adequacy of study:
- weight of evidence
- Justification for type of information:
- The registration substance Hydrocarbons, C11-C14, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, <2% aromatics (target) and the test substances Hydrocarbons, C10-C14, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, <2% aromatics (source) and Hydrocarbons, C11-C14, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics, <2% aromatics (source) are all hydrocarbons with many constituents in common. The source substances cover the carbon number range of the target substance. The substances therefore have qualitatively similar properties (RAAF Scenario 2 applies).
- Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
- read-across source
- Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
- read-across source
- Melting / freezing pt.:
- > -24 - < -17 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 1 atm
- Decomposition:
