Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Study period:
August 2017
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study with acceptable restrictions
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 102 (Melting point / Melting Range)
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Method used Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)
GLP compliance:
no
Other quality assurance:
ISO/IEC 17025 (General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories)
Remarks:
currently maintains accreditation from the A2LA (American Association for Laboratory Accreditation) in the field of Chemical Testing and operation of a laboratory quality management system (Certificate No. 3287.01)
Type of method:
differential scanning calorimetry
Specific details on test material used for the study:

Key result
Melting / freezing pt.:
< -80 °C
Atm. press.:
101.3 kPa
Decomposition:
no
Remarks on result:
not determinable
Remarks:
No freezing point observed

The sample does not display a freezing point on cooling. It does exhibit a glass transition with an average onset of 207.7°K (-65.5°C). A melting point was not evident. It is possible a melting point exists below the lower temperature limit of the instrument (-90°C). 

Conclusions:
A melting point was not evident when the substance was tested in an OECD 102 protocol (using the DSC technique) down to -80 °C.

Description of key information

none

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

No melting/freezing point was observed in experimental (OECD 102 by DSC) testing.
