Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Specific details on test material used for the study:
Batch No.: 44606300 / 50774
Storage Conditions: 2°C to 8°C, under nitrogen
Key result
Melting / freezing pt.:
42.44 °C
Atm. press.:
>= 1 000.7 - <= 1 001.7 hPa
Decomposition:
no

During the heating phase a distinct endothermic effect was observed in the temperature range of 40 – 60°C, which can be assigned to the melting of the test item. As the onset temperatures in both tests deviate by less than 0.5 K from their mean value of 42.44°C, this temperature can be used as melting point. The test item has a melting point of 42.4 °C.

Conclusions:
The test item 1,4-Dithiothreitol (CAS no. 3483-12-3) has a melting point of 42.4°C at atmospheric pressure (1001 – 1002 hPa) as determined by differential scanning calorimetry according to Regulation EC No 440/2008 Method A.1. and OECD Test Guideline 102 (1995).
Executive summary:

The test item 1,4-Dithiothreitol (CAS no. 3483-12-3) has a melting point of 42.4°C at atmospheric pressure (1001 – 1002 hPa) as determined by differential scanning calorimetry according to Regulation EC No 440/2008 Method A.1. and OECD Test Guideline 102 (1995).
