Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Key result
Melting / freezing pt.:
-42.1 °C

A freezing point was evident in the sample with an average of 250.5°K (-22.6°C) (Onset). Two melting points with average onsets of 208.7°K (-64.4°C) and 231.0°K (-42.1°C) were evident on heating. The 231.0°K melting point was the main melting point

Conclusions:
A freezing point was evident in the sample with an average of 250.5°K (-22.6°C) (Onset). Two melting points with average onsets of 208.7°K (-64.4°C) and 231.0°K (-42.1°C) were evident on heating. The 231.0°K (-42.1°C) melting point was the main melting point.

Description of key information

A freezing point was evident in the sample with an average of 250.5°K (-22.6°C) (Onset). Two melting points with average onsets of 208.7°K (-64.4°C) and 231.0°K (-42.1°C) were evident on heating. The 231.0°K melting point was the main melting point. The analyisis was carried out in duplicate.
