Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
The melting range of the test substance was determined to be - 32 to - 35 °C at 1013.25 hPa.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
- -32 °C
Additional information
A study was conducted according to OECD test guideline 102, Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 method A.1 and EPA OCSPP test guideline 830.7200 to determine the melting point of the test item using differential scanning calorimetry. Two tests with about 10 – 11 mg of the test item were performed. The substance is a liquid at ambient conditions. Therefore the crucibles were cooled down to -100 °C and afterwards the temperature was increased up to 500 °C. During the cooling phase a thermal effect was observed in the temperature range from - 65 to - 60 °C, which was associated with the freezing of the test item. During the heating phase a distinct endothermic effect was observed in the temperature range from – 45 to - 10 °C, which was associated with the melting of the test item. As the onset temperatures in both tests deviate by more than 0.5 K from their mean value of -33.56 °C, the test item had a melting range from - 32 to - 35 °C at 1013 hPa.
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.
