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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Melting point / freezing point
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- 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:
- 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:
- differential scanning calorimetry
- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- Batch 3033900250
- Key result
- Melting / freezing pt.:
- > 500 °C
- Decomposition:
- yes
- Decomp. temp.:
- 222 °C
- Conclusions:
- The melting temperature was investigated according to EU Method A.1. and OECD 102. A sample was charged to a Tzero aluminium DSC crucible which was then sealed and placed in the furnace.
On completion of the screening test, aluminium crucible has been opened and sample appearance observed as grey powder. Endothermic event was observed with onset temperature of 222.2°C, however no signs of formed droplets found in crucible after the test. Sample did not melt up to 500°C. Test terminated. Therefore, boiling point is exempt. - Executive summary:

Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
