Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Melting / freezing pt.:
>= -15 - <= -9 °C
Atm. press.:
ca. 1 atm
Conclusions:
The pour point of the test item has been determined to be -12 ± 3 °C (261 ± 3 K).
Executive summary:

Melting/Freezing Point. -12 ± 3 °C (261 ± 3 K), using the pour point method, 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.

Description of key information

As the test item is a complex mixture, it was considered that the pour point method was the most appropriate test procedure.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
-12 °C
