Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The sample was a fine powdery solid, so it did not need to be ground into powder.

The approximate melting point of the sample was determined to be about 54.2 °C, so the start temperature was set to be below 44 °C (40 °C actually).

Results of the melting range are shown in the following table:

Based on the test results, the melting range could be confirmed: 53.6 °C ~ 58.3 °C.

Conclusions:
The melting range of test substance is 53.6 °C ~ 58.3 °C.

Description of key information

Melting range: 53.6 °C to 58.3 °C at ca. 101.325 kPa (OECD Guideline 102, capillary method)

Key value for chemical safety assessment
