Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- melting point/freezing point
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 16 January 2018 - 26 March 2018
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- comparable to guideline study
- Qualifier:
- equivalent or similar to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.1 (Melting / Freezing Temperature)
- Qualifier:
- equivalent or similar to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 102 (Melting point / Melting Range)

- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- Identification: RM10000077
Chemical name: Zinc oxide phosphite (CAS 64539-51-1)
Appearance/Physical state: white powder
Lot No: 1013Q17761
Purity: 62% (zinc content)
Expiry date: 25 June 2018
Storage conditions: room temperature, in the dark - Key result
- Decomposition:
- yes
- Decomp. temp.:
- >= 333 °C
- Remarks on result:
- not determinable
- Remarks:
- test item decomposed before melting
- Key result
- Decomposition:
- yes
- Decomp. temp.:
- >= 301 °C
- Remarks on result:
- other: decomposition from 301°C when test item is dehydrated
- Conclusions:
- The metling point of the test item was not determined as it was determined to decompose from approximately 333 °C (606 K).
Decomposition may occur at a lower temperature of approximately 301 °C (574 K) when the test item is dehydrated. - Executive summary:
The test item decomposed from approximately 333 °C (606 K), by differential scanning calorimetry, using procedures designed to be compatible with Method A.1 Melting/Freezing Temperature of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 102 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 27 July 1995. Decomposition may occur at a lower temperature of approximately 301 °C (574 K) when the test item is dehydrated. Therefore the melting point of the test item was not determined.
