Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
November 24, 2015 until January 15, 2016
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 102 (Melting point / Melting Range)
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.1 (Melting / Freezing Temperature)
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Type of method:
capillary method
Key result
Melting / freezing pt.:
> 400 °C

The determination of the melting point was performed by visual judgement using the capillary method.

In the preliminary tests up to 400 °C no melting point as described in the guideline could be observed.

In conclusion, for Calcium bis(metaphosphate) (CAS 13477-39-9, EC 236-769-6) no melting point according to the criteria described in the guideline could be observed up to 400 °C.

Description of key information

Melting point: > 400°C (OECD 102, A.1., capillary method)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The melting point of the substance was determined by using capillary method.
