2 melting points were detected for the solvent free test substance. The first (33°C) is the transition between solid and paste, the latter (200°C) between paste and liquid.

Conclusions:
Under the study conditions, two melting points were detected for the solvent free test substance. The first (33°C) is the transition between solid and paste, the latter (200°C) between paste and liquid.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the melting point of the test substance, C16 -18 ADBAC (>97% active) using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), according to ASTM E 537 – 07 Method. Under the study conditions, two melting points were detected for the solvent free test substance. The first (33°C) is the transition between solid and paste, the latter (200°C) between paste and liquid (Ulama, 2010).

Description of key information

The melting point of the test substance was determined using the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), according to ASTM E 537 – 07 Method (Ulama, 2010).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
33 °C
