-50 °C

Additional information

A study was conducted according to OECD test guideline 103, Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 method A.2 and EPA OPPTS test guideline 830.7200 to determine the freezing point of the test item. No freezing was observed down to a temperature of -50°C (223.15K). Therefore the freezing point of the test item was determined to be < -50°C (223.15K).
