Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
melting point/freezing point
Type of information:
read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
weight of evidence
Study period:
11 May 2011
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
Guideline study. According to the ECHA guidance document "Practical guide 6: How to report read-across and categories (March 2010)", the reliability was changed from RL1 to RL2 to reflect the fact that this study was conducted on a read-across substance.
Justification for type of information:
See IUCLID section 13.2 for analogue justification.
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
read-across source
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: ASTM D 97-02
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
pour point
Melting / freezing pt.:
-57 °C
Atm. press.:
ca. 1 013 hPa

There are no values given for pressure but assumed to be measured at normal pressure (1013 hPa). No information is given on specification on decomposition/sublimation temperature.

Conclusions:
The Pour Point of TEGDA was determined to be -57 °C.
Executive summary:

The Pour Point of TEGDA was determined to be -57 °C.

Description of key information

<-20 °C at ca. 1013 hPa

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The melting/freezing point of the substance 1,3 -butylene diacetate (CAS 1117 -31 -3) was deduced from similar substances: Ethylene diacetate (CAS 111 -55 -7) has a melting point of -78 °C, the 2,2'-[ethane-1,2-diylbis(oxy)]bisethyl diacetate (Ethylenetriglycol diacetate) (CAS 111 -21 -7) has a melting point of -57 °C.

Therefore the melting point of the substance 1,3 -butylene diacetate (CAS 1117 -31 -3) was deduced to be <-20 °C.
