Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- melting point/freezing point
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- Testing was conducted between 30 September 2009 and 2 December 2009.
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.1 (Melting / Freezing Temperature)
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Remarks:
- Date of GLP inspection: 15 September 2009 Date of Signature on GLP certificate: 26 November 2009
- Type of method:
- thermal analysis
- Remarks:
- Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)
- Melting / freezing pt.:
- > 723 K
- Remarks on result:
- other: .
- Conclusions:
- The test material was determined to have a melting temperature greater than 723 K. Although the test material was identified as undergoing loss of volatiles at approximately 458 K, this thermal event was not associated with a phase transition (i.e. melting) of the test material. This study is considered to be adequate and reliable for the purpose of registration under REACH (Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006).
- Executive summary:
Method
The determination was carried out by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) using the procedure specified in ASTM E537-86, Method A1 Melting/Freezing Temperature of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008.
Conclusion
The test material was determined to have a melting temperature greater than 723 K. Although the test material was identified as undergoing loss of volatiles at approximately 458 K, this thermal event was not associated with a phase transition (i.e. melting) of the test material.

Discussion
Identical thermographic profiles were obtained for the definitive test under both air and nitrogen atmospheres. However, as possible loss of volatiles was to be investigated by a cyclic heating program, nitrogen was used as the furnace atmosphere for the additional test determination as it would ensure the absence of ambient moisture which could have been reabsorbed by the sample on cooling.
For the additional test determination, the presence of the first endotherm during heating step 1, but its absence during reheating of the sample confirmed that this endothermic event was attributable to loss of volatiles. Additionally, the unchanged residue appearance confirmed that the thermal event did not originate from a phase transition (e.g. melting) of the test material.
Description of key information
The melting point of magnesium bis(dihydrogenorthophosphate) was determined according to EU Method A.1 (Melting / Freezing Temperature) and under the conditions of GLP.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
- 450 °C
Additional information
The test material was determined to have a melting temperature greater than 723 K (450°C).
