Description of key information

Bismuth hydroxide has a melting point of greater than 500 °C

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
500 °C

Additional information

A study was conducted to determine the thermal stability and melting point of the test item according to the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Part A: Methods for the determination of physico-chemical properties. A.1. Melting point / melting range and OECD test guidelines, OECD 102 (1995) Melting point/melting range, OECD 113 (1981) Screening test for thermal stability and stability in air.

Due to the measurement and the optical inspection it can be concluded, that the test item has no melting point up to 500 °C.
