Results

The test item did not emit any distinct endothermic signal that could be assigned with melting of the test item under discribed test conditions (up to 500 °C, 10 K/min, N2). Therefore, the test item does not melt at temperatures up to 500 °C.

Conclusions:
According to Regulation EC No. 440/2008, Method A.1., OECD Test Guideline 102 (1995) and EPA OCSPP 830.7200 (1998), erbium tetraoxide vanadium (ErVO4) does not melt at temperatures ranging from 25 °C to 500 °C at atmospheric pressure (1006 hPa) as determined by differential scanning calorimetry.

Description of key information

Erbium tetraoxide vanadium (ErVO4) does not melt at temperatures up to 500 °C at atmospheric pressure.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
