Additional information

The melting point determination of 2-bromoethylammonium bromide (CAS No. 2576-47-8) was done following OECD Guideline 102 and according to the metal block capillary method. The test was conducted in replicates and Mean Melting temperature range was determined to be 168 °C-171°C at 979.2hPa.

Other supporting studies from various reliable sources such as authoritative database and handbook suggests that the melting point of chemical 2-Bromoethylamine hydrobromide was determined to be in the range of 168 degree C to 174 degree C

As the data from lab has K1 reliability and the test was performed using OECD guidelines which has the value of melting point as 168 degree C to 171 degree C at 979.2 hPa,thus considered as key study for the chemical safety assessment
