Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Key result
Melting / freezing pt.:
< -100 °C
Atm. press.:
1 002 hPa

During the cooling and the subsequent heating phase, no thermal effects were observed in the temperature range from -100 to 25 °C. It can be assumed that the test item has no melting or freezing point in this temperature range. Therefore the test item has no melting point down to a temperature of -100 °C.

Conclusions:
The test item has no melting point down to -100°C at atmospheric pressure.
Executive summary:

In the current study the melting point of the test item was assessed according to Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.1. and OECD Test Guideline 102 (1995)

During the cooling and the subsequent heating phase, no thermal effects were observed in the temperature range from -100 to 25 °C. It can be assumed that the test item has no melting point down to a temperature of -100 °C.

Description of key information

The test item has no melting point down to -100 °C at atmospheric pressure.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
-100 °C

Additional information

There is one study available assessing the melting point of the test item according to Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.1. and OECD Test Guideline 102 (1995) by differential scanning calorimetry.

During the cooling and the subsequent heating phase, no thermal effects were observed in the temperature range from -100 to 25 °C. It can be assumed that the test item has no melting or freezing point down to a temperature of -100 °C.
