Description of key information
The melting point of the test item reaction mass of tetradecanoic anhydride and tetradecanoic acid was calculated based on read-across to tetradecanoic anhydride and tetradecanoic acid.
Calculation for melting point with software tool MPBPWIN v1.43 for tetradecanoic anhydride: 53.4 °C
Calculation for melting point with software tool MPBPWIN v1.43 for tetradecanoic acid: 53.9 °C
The melting point for the test item reaction mass of tetradecanoic anhydride and tetradecanoic acid could be included between these values, therofore circa 53.65 °C.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
- 53.65 °C
Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
