Preliminary Test

Since the test item is a liquid at ambient temperature a preliminary test was conducted. The freezing point of the test item was determined to be below -20 °C. Thus, main study was conducted.

 

Main Test

The crucibles were cooled down from ambient temperature to -40 °C with a constant cooling rate of 10 K/min under an inert atmosphere. After a waiting period of 30 min at -40 °C, the temperature was increased up to room temperature at a constant heating rate of 10 K/min. In the temperature range of - 30 °C to -16 °C, an endothermic reaction was observed, which was related to the transition from the solid to liquid phase.Thus, the melting point of the test item was determined to be in range from -30 to -16 °C.

Conclusions:
The melting point of the test item was determined to be in range from -30 to -16 °C.
Executive summary:

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. The test item was weighed out into an aluminium crucible under an inert atmosphere (nitrogen). Two tests with 7.5 mg and 7.6 mg of the test item were performed. As reference crucible, an empty aluminium crucible was used. The substance is a liquid at ambient conditions. Therefore the crucibles were cooled down from ambient temperature to -40 °C with a constant cooling rate of 10 K/min under an inert atmosphere. After a waiting period of 30 min at -40 °C, the temperature was increased up to room temperature at a constant heating rate of 10 K/min. In the temperature range of - 30 °C to -16 °C, an endothermic reaction was observed, which was related to the transition from the solid to liquid phase.Thus, the melting point of the test item was determined to be in range from -30 to -16 °C.
