no

Any other information on results incl. tables

Mean melting temperature: Greater than 633 ± 0.5 K

Discussion

The residue in both determinations was observed to be very similar in appearance to the original material.

As the test material was indicated by the Sponsor to contain 12% water as a known impurity, the wide endotherm at approximately 140 to 190°C was anticipated to be due to entrained water evaporating from the test samples.


Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The melting/freezing temperature of the test material has been determined to be greater than 633 ± 0.5 K.
Executive summary:

The determination for substance NDS-Li in project number 1307 -0447 was carried out by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) using the procedure specified in ASTM E537-86, Method A1 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC (which constitutes Annex V of Council Directive 67/548/EEC).

The melting/freezing temperature of the test material has been determined to be greater than 633 ± 0.5 K.
