Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

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:
EU Method A.1 (Melting / Freezing Temperature)
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 102 (Melting point / Melting Range)
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EPA OPPTS 830.7200 (Melting Point / Melting Range)
GLP compliance:
yes
Type of method:
capillary method
Specific details on test material used for the study:
Purity: > 99%
Key result
Decomposition:
yes
Remarks on result:
not determinable
Remarks:
Melting point was immeasurable since test substance decomposed prior to reaching melting point.
Conclusions:
Melting point was immeasurable since the test substance decomposed prior to reaching the melting point.
Executive summary:

The melting point of the test substance was measured by the capillary technique using the Stuart SMP 20 Melting Point Apparatus based on the procedures described in OPPTS 830.7200, OECD TG 102, and EEC method A1 methods. Melting point was immeasurable since the test substance decomposed prior to reaching the melting point. This procedure was conducted with anthraquinone to verify the method and repeated with the test substance to obtain two measurements.
