Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

As the melting points differ by more than 0.5 K below 600 K a range had to be stated:

 - The melting range under these circumstances as the endothermic event should be stated with: -11.65 to 19.68°C (261.50 to 292.83 K)

 - The freezing point under these circumstances as the exothermic event should be stated with: 11.86 to -13.55°C (285.01 to 259.60 K)

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
- the melting range under these circumstances as the endothermic event should be stated with: -11.65 to 19.68°C (261.50 to 292.83 K)
- the freezing point under these circumstances as the exothermic event should be stated with: 11.86 to -13.55°C (285.01 to 259.60 K)
Executive summary:

In an OECD 102 study with pure DMSO-d6:

- the melting range under these circumstances as the endothermic event should be stated with: -11.65 to 19.68°C (261.50 to 292.83 K)

- the freezing point under these circumstances as the exothermic event should be stated with: 11.86 to -13.55°C (285.01 to 259.60 K)
