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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- melting point/freezing point
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- weight of evidence
- Study period:
- 1897 - 2006
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- data from handbook or collection of data
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The result was sourced from a peer-reviewed database in which the original data sources are traceable.
- GLP compliance:
- not specified
- Melting / freezing pt.:
- 36.6 °C
- Conclusions:
- A melting point of 36.6 °C is averaged from a collection of reliable data which has been subject to peer-review and in which the original data sources are traceable. The result is considered to be reliable.
- Endpoint:
- melting point/freezing point
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- supporting study
- Study period:
- 2011
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: The result was obtained from a secondary source MSDS in which the original sources are traceable. The original source has been subject to peer-review and therefore are considered as reliable.
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Experimental measurement (data is taken from a secondary source, information about the methodology is not available)
- GLP compliance:
- not specified
- Melting / freezing pt.:
- 37.4 °C
- Conclusions:
- A melting point of 37.4°C is averaged from two secondary literature references. The original source has been subject to peer-review and therefore are considered as reliable.

Description of key information
Melting point: 37 to 37.5 °C
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
- 37 °C
Additional information
An average melting point of 37.0 °C was obtained from a database which has been subject to peer-review and in which the original data sources are traceable. Melting points in the range of 37.0 to 37.5 °C are reported in secondary literature.
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.
