Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.:
>= 170.5 - <= 177 °C
Remarks on result:
other: no information on atm. pressure, decomposition not reported for that temperature range
Conclusions:
melting point: 170.5 to 177°C
Executive summary:

According to Martin (1971; cited in US-EPA document EPA-504 -1 -75 -028 ; 1975, page 17) and Merck (1968; cited in US-EPA document EPA-504 -1 -75 -028 ;1975, page 17) Monuron has a melting point of 170.5 to 177 °C.

Since this information is obtained form a peer reviewed document from an international accepted authority the result is considered reliable with restrictions for the further assessment.

Description of key information
