Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

There are no values given for pressure but assumed to be measured at normal pressure (1013 hPa). No information is given on specification on decomposition/sublimation temperature.

Description of key information

-81- -25 °C at ca.1013 hPa (OECD 102)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The melting point of the substance fatty acids, C8-10 (even numbered), diesters with neopentyl glycol and di- and triesters with trimethylolpropane (CAS 97281-24-8) was determined according to OECD Guideline 102 and in-house test procedure VTA(S)31X93001.02: "melting temperature determination (Tm) of solid and liquid substances by means of DSC". During the melting the sample shows a crystallisation at -73 °C.

Test conducted under atmospheric pressure condition, decomposition/sublimation, as well as decomposition/sublimation temperature is not specified.
