Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

No evidence of solidification or freezing of the test material was observed down to a temperature of 252 +/- 0.5K

Conclusions:
The freezing temperature has been determined to be less than 252 +/- 0.5 K.
Executive summary:

Method

The melting/freezing temperature was determined using method BS4633: Method for the Determination of Crystallizing Point, Method A1 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC (which constitutes Annex V of Council Directive 67/548/EEC).

 

Results

The freezing temperature has been determined to be less than 252 +/- 0.5 K.

 

Description of key information

The freezing temperature has been determined to be less than 252 ± 0.5 K (EU Method A.1).
