Administrative data

Endpoint:

boiling point

Data waiving:

study scientifically not necessary / other information available

Justification for data waiving:

the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is a solid which melts above 300°C

Cross-reference

Reason / purpose for cross-reference:

data waiving: supporting information

Reference

Combining three handbook results, the melting temperature of calcium nitrate (anhydrous) is ca. 561°C.

The Merck Index (12th ed.) mentions a melting temperature of ca. 45°C for calcium nitrate tetrahydrate.

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:

561 °C
