Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
The melting point of the test item has been determined to be 37.7 ± 0.5°C (311 ± 0.5 K) by differential scanning caloritry, using ASTM E537-86, designed to be compatible with Method 102 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 27 July 1995.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
- 37.7 °C
Additional information
A reliability rating of 1 was assigned to the key study, according to the criteria of Klimisch, 1997 as the study was conducted in accordance with recognised guidelines and GLP.
Supporting information is also available from a Merck (2006) Safety data sheet, a NIOSH report and the SRC QSAR database. The results contained in these are 37-40°C, 43 °C and 42°C respectively.
A reliability rating of 4 was assigned for the SDS as the information is secondary source and for the QSAR information as it is not validated for organometallic substances. The NIOSH report was assigned a reliability rating of 2 as it is a peer reviewed Government report.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
