Date: 30/07/2018 – 31/07/2018

Operator: G. Jordan / F. Michala

Preparation: Tested as received

SOP Reference : CTL SOP No. 401

Apparatus: Freezing temperature devices with liquid bath and a calibrated, digital thermocouple system.

The sample was held between -25.5 to -27°C for approximately 21 hours. No freezing was observed, therefore the result has been reported as < -20°C.

Conclusions:
The sample was held between -25.5 to -27°C for approximately 21 hours. No freezing was observed, therefore the result has been reported as < -20°C.
Executive summary:

The freezing point of Vetimoss was determined according to OECD guideline 102. The sample was held between -25.5 to -27°C for approximately 21 hours. No freezing was observed, therefore the result has been reported as < -20°C.
