Melting point / freezing point
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- melting point/freezing point
- Type of information:
- other: handbook
- Adequacy of study:
- weight of evidence
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: see 'Remark'
- Remarks:
- The data is provided by well-know and widely accepted reference books, some being also mentioned in table R.7.1.-2 of chapter R 7.1.1.2 of the Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment. As such the data is considered as useful in a weight of evidence approach.

Results and discussion
Melting / freezing point
- Melting / freezing pt.:
- -36 °C
- Atm. press.:
- ca. 1 atm
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The melting point is reported to be -36°C.
- Executive summary:
The melting point is reported to be -36°C, which is consistent with the physical state of the substance, i.e. liquid at ambiant temperature.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
